I wonder if he has a sense of humor? Maybe I could get him to autograph an empty birdshot shell. That would be so fucking cool. The venue where he is appearing is owned by my friends, I'll see if he's staying for dinner. Who knows what may happen after a few bottles of wine?

It's hard to tell from your picture, Joe, but the best and cheapest place to lose weight is your self. Your bike will be ten pounds lighter when you are.

That used to crack us up at the shop. Some fat bastard would come in and start buying up fancy wheel sets and titanium doodads (shaving ounces) which we'd happily sell him, but maybe he should ride a heavier bike until he gets in shape and down to racing weight? Of course, now I'm the fat bastard... I felt stronger last weekend though. I'll be fast or blow up my heart trying.

Ask LeMond if he was the last clean winner of the Tour after you get some wine in him.

Oh yea, the bike is a tool to that end. I got very lucky with this bike, it's a 1900.00-2,000.00 bike, I bought it on consignment from the local shop for 1100.00. Couldn't pass it up, it just happens to be all carbon and pretty light. As far as the rider the bike can loose 20-30 lbs.
