My wife and I are leaving for france for 2 weeks of tandem biking with people we met online @ warmshowers.org
We planned to climb Alpe d’huez on Sept 12 the same time you will be on the summit and as a Fredcast listener, I want to meet you.
Call me at 314-308-2565 to talk about what time you will be at the summit and how we might meet….

My ms team in MO has 120 members and we raise 100,000.00 buck a year…Not bad Huh?
Dave,
Thanks so much for putting into words my issues with Team Astana in this years Tour. I felt all the way thru that coverage was SO slanted to Lance vs Alberto. I have been having trouble making clear my issues, but you handled it so well. I will be referring people here and to this podcast for the real story!
Fight like Susan! and best to Elden and his family.

David,
Just a quick comment, if it has not already been made in regards to your thoughts on cyclists obeying traffic laws. Being someone, like you, who wants to do my part to improve the cycling communities reputation, and living in a community in which three cyclists have been killed by motorists in the last few months, I do my best to obey all traffic laws. However, our community is filled with traffic lights that simply do not respond to a cyclist. i know which ones they are and my only choices are to run the lights (after I have slowed down and checked traffic) or to figure out a way to push the cross walk. This is a huge problem for most of our routes in the city and makes it very difficult to obey the law.
