RIP Octavio Orduno

Nice writeup. Hope I can still ride as I pass 100!

Chapeau Octavio!

This really got me: "What finally stopped him was the theft of his bike's front wheel." Now that is sad.

What an inspiration!

I ride hard and fast almost every day. One of the reasons I do that is because I want to ride well with my grandson when he is a teenager.

If I can keep riding as well as Octavio, I shouldn't have any trouble!
