- I spent 20 years of my life working in the bicycle industry, turning wrenches and selling bikes for some of the industry's best shops. I have extensive experience designing and constructing frames in both steel and titanium and have performed thousands of bike fits. I am passionate about bicycles in all forms. The bicycle provides me with physical and mental health and taps me into a social pipeline that allows me to share my passion with others. I ride as often as possible and love the flow of a hard group ride. Check back for musings about all things road cycling and, especially, the Spring Classics. The devil is in the details and I am an expert in the useless minutia that makes up our discipline.

Simply beautiful. That's all I can say.
Thanks for the posts, as always. Keep 'em coming.
...i've always had an affinity for both the fluid fausto coppi & the big power of his day, rik van steenbergen...
...the year i was born, 1949, coppi won milan-san rimo, giro d' italia, tour d' france & giro d' lombardia to name the big wins...rather impressive palmares, no ?... (coppi's brother serge split the win at paris-roubaix that same season w/ andre mahe, due to a course direction foul up...
...van steenbergen won one of his three world road championships in '49 & as a young teenager, i got to see big ric near the end of his career at a 6 day race...
...thanks for stirring the memory pot...
