HAVING FUN
      
               In the sport of cycling having fun is very important. I mean sure you have to take this
sport seriously. But whats the point of doing any sport if you're not having fun. Especially when
your a kid like me, oh trust me I take my racing seriously, but I'am having a blast while I'am doing
it. At my age 13 cycling should not be a job, although some day I would Love to race in the Tour
and the one day Classics. And when and if that day comes I need to be willing to make sacrifices
and be willing to train everyday. But you should still make it fun.
            Greg LeMond told me a year ago, kid make cycling as fun as you can make it, it'll become
a job soon enough. So that's what I'am going to do. Believe me I'am still going to race hard and try
to win all the races I can, but if I don't win I'am still going to have fun. After all that's why I started
riding and racing bicycles its fun. I'am lucky I'am on a great team (SPECIALIZED) I have great
teammates. Having them as teammates makes racing all the more fun. So in closing go ride with
your kids,your parents, a friend just go ride its fun and good for you. Besides it's something you
can do the rest of your life. And it's fun. See you next time.
