2nd day on the job I was sitting around talking to one of the older guys...

Less myth and more of a dream for some who enjoy cycling. Some see their dream of making a living cycling as a messenger and others in pro racing. I am sure there are myths about track cycling as well.
Certainly no reason to hijack a messenger video thread.
