Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

A ride with George

I just received this DVD in the mail. It's very good, I had no idea he was such a silent soldier... It's nice to see a guy in his position be completely void of ego...

One particular part:

"I've heard people compare me to Scotty Pippen, I'm like ****, Pippen's awesome..."

Do you have the link to the DVD? I did google and did not find much other than the preview stuff. And the youtube links.

Those of you who watched it, is it worth buying or more like a one time view? Just trying to see if I should buy it or find it somewhere I can rent it.

I requested it on Netflix here: https://www.netflix.com/Suggest

If enough people do the same maybe they will get it.

Received the dvd a couple weeks back, watched it immediately. good stuff, entertaining, a bit of enlightenment into Hincapie.

I'm not gonna give away any of the good stuff contained, but I do give it a thumbs up. I've passed it on to buddies for viewing.

Is it worth the $ ???? Only you can make that call.
