That said, I've always thought that if you want to race bikes, you have to have the mindset that you're willing to lay down your life around the next corner, and if you need to run over your grandmother to win the sprint, you'll do it! But then, when is your grandmother ever going to get in the way of your sprint? So it's a rhetorical question, but that mindset still has to be there.
