49. Yup - It Hits Home From Knowing The Guy As An Individual

Tue Jan 15, 2013, 11:42 AM

Jan 2013

And not just a "famous dude." Granted I was like, ages 8-12 when I saw him on a regular basis. He bought my sister her first "grown up" (12-speed touring) bike when she started to show an interest in cycling. Even after he made a name for himself, he and my dad chatted now and then. I watched all his TDF wins. Gave to LiveStrong. Always took his side vs the doping agencies that I saw as out to get him. I'm bummed that its all true.
