So your too lazy to work on your bike...

Three hours condensed into 42 seconds last night at the Vuelta a España our mechanics work hard!

Sir Bradley Wiggins...delivers an impressive read...and ride in his cycling career.

I'm very impressed with this read.  It was informative and riveting on the level that it takes you in the peloton and reveals the ordinary many accomplishing great feats in history.  It's well written and you walk away knowing the man and wanting to know what's next.  Which come to find out, he in turn breaks the one hour track record, and now I'm eager to see what happens at this years World's Championship in Richmond, VA.  The only problem I have with this kind of great interest and storied career, is that it is over too soon.  I can hear the classic British explicative curse words coming from his mouth at that notion of "too soon", but this kind of greatness seems so fleeting.  Classic though it is, it's nice to know, or at least hope, that it will not be overdone and tarnished in any way as he tries to hang on for the ride.

How a Colombian Cycling Tradition Changed the World

A million cyclists taking over the busiest, biggest, and most important streets of a notoriously traffic-snarled metropolis? No big deal—it happens every week in Bogotá, Colombia.

BYMARK JENKINS

"I was educated analyzing this urban crisis. When I came back home to Bogotá, I was shocked to see that we Colombians were following the American path of urban development. Cars and more cars. One person, one car. It was obvious that this was not going to lead to a livable city. So I became a radical. I knew how to do it: I was trained by the best American counterculture radicals. And the bicycle quite naturally became a symbol of revolution. The bicycle symbolizes individuality, civil rights, women's rights,urban mobility, simplicity, the new urbanism, and, of course, environmental consciousness."
