As many of you may already know, Robin Williams is quite the cycling enthusiast and fan.

I was at the Saturn car dealership today getting my car serviced. While I was waiting, I came across this article in Saturn Cycling Magazine . I thought some of the people here would enjoy it. Robin Williams is a riot.

Be warned, each page is about 350 kB

If I had the mag I would read it all, but I cant stand reading it on the computer. What I did read was awesome and funny though!!!:D

Its funnier the second time around. I especially like Robin's comment on bicycle technology,

"And what's that? `Oh, it's depleted uranium. but it's soooo tough!`"

I think you can get a copy of the magazine for free by going to Saturn's website.

ThanX for the post - good stuff! The man had to trim the number of his bikes down to about 60!! Yup, he likes cycling.

5 Reasons why I now HATE Robin Williams

1. He is way funnier than I am
2. He has 59 more bikes than I do
3. He gets a chance to ride 100-150 miles per week
4. He makes a ton of money that he spends on bike paraphenalia
5. HE GETS TO HANG OUT AND RIDE WITH LANCE!

pss. The part where he tells the story of whispering "You can do it" to Roberto just about killed me....Must be nice to be in that car!

No problem. Glad I posted it. Glad people are reading and enjoying it.

Another one of my favorites is when he offered the USPS Team to help them with their chamois lube.
