“When I got off the bike at the end of the Tour, it was finished,”
Lance Armstrong
“When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle. Then I realised that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me.”
Emo Philips
“[At one stage, when they stop to ask directions, they pick up a local on a bike who, in true Moroccan style, turns out to be a fake guide.] He just took us to where he wanted to go and got out, ... We got back at 2.15am, not a single drink was found or taken. Hey ho.”
William Dalrymple
“There is a bike for everyone. There are bikes for just about every specific need, even hand-pedaling bikes. You just have to find the correct bike for the rider.”
Mark Hall
“When I was 16 and 17, I used to follow the fire trucks on my bike. I was able to follow because they spilled water when they turned corners. When I turned 18, they changed the bylaws to let me volunteer, but I couldn't ride the trucks until I turned 21. I volunteered for the fire department for 37 years until Blue Ash became a village and they bought two trucks.”
Clete Oaks
“Cheer up Freddie, when we get out of detention you can borrow my bike if you want,”
John Swan
“When trails are muddy from the spring thaw, they are vulnerable to damage from even the most careful mountain bike riders and other recreational users. When the weather turns warm, everyone wants to go and get outdoors, but we're asking them to be just a bit patient.”
