He'd have lapped me something like 5 times. Okay, he could have lapped me 3 times and still beat me to his 4k finish line by a minute or so, and I was only riding 3k meters. That works out to at least 5 laps total.
Someone ask him about that front wheel thing. Or the bike. Or the whole experience. He was one of the stars of the Olympic team that year, that's for sure.
Also former USPro champion. I want his signature on a jersey I have too. But I guess that's out for now.

I might be able to get an autograph for you. I don't know if he's into that kind of stuff but I see him about once a week. It won't hurt to ask.
