Cyclist Michael Rasmussen was my hero. Yesterday he was kicked out of the Tour for doping. From childhood I have always loved the red polka-dot jersey awarded to the best mountain climber of the Tour de France - Luis Hererra, Stephen Roche and for the last 2 years Michael Rasmussen. So while I'm in the market for a barely legal 14 lbs racing bike, and 'gutted' over the betrayal by my hero, I also captured an image of perhaps the earliest and most purely exciting type of bicycle riding - sitting on the cross bar of an older siblings beater. Hi design or low design - enjoy theride, and don't cheat.
