Spies has proven to be pretty level headed and intelligent about his motorcycle
racing. Even doing minimal bicycle racing like he'll have to do, I think those
characteristics should be helpful to him. He might surprise people if he got a chance
to be serious about it.

Isn't it funny that some people go on rides with the racer dudes and
learn what to do, while others don't?
Of course, it helps if your day job is being a racer dude.

I would like to see how he takes a corner at speed. Must feel odd for
him to not be almost rubbing his knee on the pavement.

Dumbasses,

No one is addressing the question. How is a Cat 5 racer allowed
to enter a Cat 1/2 race? Probably the answer is that it was a
small, rinky dink race and no one cared.

What I wan to know is why he is willing to take such a massive
risk on a non-steel fork on his bike? It could explode at any
second.
