funny you should should ask. on one ride up beech mountain, Wb, Lance, Hincapie, LeMond and i got together for a sunday stroll up beech. Myself, being the ever so exciteable front force of any group of riders, decides to push the pace a bit, getting up and out of the saddle only to have a trail of pro's give chase. It was all fun and games until Lance made his move and that is the usual move he makes whenever someone challeneges his authority which was bye bye. So i gave chase and back and forth we went dropping Hincapie and LeMond in the following few minutes.
i look back and and see Wb right there, all grins as if to say 'uh uh, you ain't going anywhere!"
The hell i wasn't. I really go this time and split off in front of Lance and WB and this time, no response from either. For six hours we climbed, me by myself and Lance and the others battling it out for second place on what was turning out to be an all out war which, btw, i was winning.
We get to the top and we check our times. Me 6: 34:17, faster than Lance by over four minutes and the rest of the ladies by 7. It was a grand day that day as i really got to show my stuff.
Lance asked me if i'd like to ride for Team Postal to which i replied 'No, the timing just isn't right as my dog Pumpkin needs me and besides, i wouldn't want to take from your spotlight."
then i woke up.
