for everyone out there that says biking is not a sport they have no idea. besides biking i am in hockey and football and can honestly say hockey is much harder than those 2 put together. i have taken way harder slams biking than i ever have or ever willl in hockey or football.biking is my life, they told me I should play a sport, that had rules, boundries, regulation. They told me to ware a number, hum..I'm an artist, i tell them i bike. Its not to stay healthy, its apart of me. the Whole perpose of basketball is to beat someone else, but the whole purpose of riding is to beat yourself, and everythign your afraid of.
