Sounds like it will be a good read.

One of our local guys is on a pro team now, well I call him a kid, because that's what he was when he absolutely tore up the local college racing scene and quickly got drafted on LA's development squad back in the day. But anyway it nearly tore him to bits and he got his act back together. It's interesting to watch his development over the current decade.

I've played every sport just about imaginable except maybe real fringe ones like field hockey for example. But between football, baseball, soccer, hockey and so on in High School and after when I took up bike racing I realize that this is by far the hardest sport ever.

I can't even imagine what it must be like at the top pro level.

If you have not read 'A Dog in a Hat' it's another good perspective on what it's like to be a middle of the road top pro.
