Forever Two Wheels


I've done a lot of different kinds of bicycle racing .. Road Cycling being one of them. After I stopped BMX racing in 87 I went into bicycle Road Racing .. and quickly found out it was pretty damn hard. I did it off and on for a few years until I became totally hooked in 1993 and it became an obsession. I raced until early 2006. When I finally decided it was time to stop. It felt strange to have so much extra time on my hands.. before I had none. I was either training, working, racing, or traveling. I feel more comfortable on two wheels than I do walking and my road bike still feels like a part of me even though I only ride it a fraction of what I used to.

Just yesterday I dusted off the presta valves, wiped down the clip shoes & went for a short ride, it was the first time in a couple of years.

Good stuff Troy.
