I resumed cycling in 2006 at age 57 and coincidentally joined Bike Forums. I became interested in racing and hired a coach. I have been consistently training and racing for 18 years at the road and track now age 76.

When I was a kid, I found my inspiration for sports from pro athletes. For me, nothing has changed in that I still find inspiration in watching and observing pro cyclists. Today, we have a crop of juniors in my track training group and Team USA sprint team is on the track ahead of us. I find these young men and women inspirational. Why? It is the energy and enthusiasm that they have for the sport. It is addictive.

Inspiration is where you find it.
