Well, this ought to put an end to the commentary that @ryder_hesjedal hasn’t been getting enough support this #giro.

Everyday, when I drive past the bus stop, and watch people waiting for the bus, checking the time, staring straight ahead at nothing, I can’t help but to wonder what the world would be like if we all did what we love?? What would happen if we all followed our dreams??

The lost art of cycling for fun
‘To a man with a hammer, everything looks like a nail.’ Well, to a man or woman on a racing bike, every ride tends to have an intensity it wouldn’t have if the bike were more humble. So in that way, racing clothing and racing bikes make it difficult, even unnatural, to enjoy a bike ride – to go casual.”
