Pretty humbling story.
Thanks for posting.
inspiring
Even Davis has been shocked by him.
We should all "donate" miles to someone who is not able anymore.
I was lying in bed trying to formulate a charity idea for Davis Phinney foundation. He helped me with my appeal
Was nice to read something good about cycling, kinda wish the cameras had caught him plowing on through the race would have been good to see the effort he put in which sounds massive. It looked horrific just on the TV can't imagine what it was like to have to actually cycle it! Makes me admire the guy and his querkyness even more!
I saw his tweet after the race - and now can appreciate what he meant. Thanks for posting the link.
Wonderful piece, shame about missing the timetrial, perhaps that is a rule made to be broken.
