“When the spirits are low, when the day appears dark, when work becomes monotonous, when hope hardly seems worth having, just mount a bicycle and go out for a spin down the road, without thought on anything but the ride you are taking.”

The more I practice, the luckier i get.

I remember a race car driver stating this after some person quoted the race car driver as being "LUCKY"

All I need to Know I learned from this guy.....

I have never been lost, but I will admit to being confused for several weeks.

I was happy in the midst of dangers and inconveniences.

One day I undertook a tour through the country, and the diversity and beauties of nature I met with in this charming season, expelled every gloomy and vexatious thought.

I may not be the biggest.
I may not be the strongest.
I may not be the fastest.
But
I am not afraid.

From a t-shirt I once saw at a race:

Front: Winning is everything.

Back: 2nd place just means you're the first loser.

The Rules of Cycling ...

1) Suc_, but don't touch.

2) Avoid all moving and stationary objects; if you fail with the first, don't over-react.

3) No hockers, wheezers, oysters, sidewinders or any other release from any body orifice from the front or middle of a paceline.

4) Always keep your chain lubricated.

5) Always keep'em hard.
