Average Is Your Enemy.

Cycling Is So Hard, The Suffering Is So Intense, That It’s Absolutely Cleansing. The Pain Is So Deep And Strong That A Curtain Descends Over Your Brain….once; Someone Asked Me What Pleasure I Took In Riding For So Long. ‘pleasure???? I Said.’ ‘i Don’t Understand The Question.’ I Didn’t Do It For The Pleasure; I Did It For The Pain.

I Don't Think History Is Stupid.history Ultimately Rectifies A Lot Of These Things. If You Had To Ask Me What I Think Happens In 50 Years, I Don't Think It Sits Empty In 50 Years. Maybe Somebody Else's Name Is There. But You Can't Leave It Empty.

When You Win, You Don't Examine It Very Much, Except To Congratulate Yourself. You Easily, And Wrongly, Assume It Has Something To Do With Your Rare Qualities As A Person. But Winning Only Measures How Hard You've Worked And How Physically Talented You Are; It Doesn't Particularly Define You Beyond Those Characteristics.

In My Most Painful Moments On The Bike, I Am At My Most Curious And I Wonder Each And Every Time How I Will Respond.

The Way You Live Your Life, The Perspective You Select, Is A Choice You Make Every Single Day When You Wake Up. It's Yours To Decide.
