UTCX: Make Flahute Ride!

Here’s the deal. People saw me on a CX bike this past weekend at the UTCX Cross Out Cancer event for the first time in at least 4 years.

The event was a success, but we want to raise more money.

For every $1000 raised before the start of the first race on Saturday [...]

UTCX Cross Out Cancer

Last year’s event raised around $28,000. The totals from this year’s event have not yet been announced, but since fundraising will be ongoing throughout the entire season, it’s certainly not too [...]

AGAINST ELEGIES

James has cancer. Catherine has cancer. Melvin has AIDS. Whom will I call, and get no answer? My old friends, my new friends who are old, or older, sixty, seventy, take pills before or after dinner.

Team RadioShack called before UCI Disciplinary Commission

The International Cycling Union (UCI) wishes to announce that disciplinary proceedings will be opened against Team RadioShack, for breaching the regulations governing riders’ clothing.

The UCI regrets that an initiative for a cause as worthy as the fight against cancer was not coordinated beforehand with the Commissaires and organisers of the event. This could have [...]

Fignon At Tour Despite Battling Cancer

Two-time Tour de France winner Laurent Fignon first revealed in June 2009 that he had been diagnosed with intestinal tract cancer. One year on, he is still fighting the disease but has refused to give up his role as a TV and radio commentator at this year’s Tour de France.

Fignon commented on the prologue [...]

Rider Down: Tour of Utah director Terry McGinnis

Terry, we met a couple of times, but I can’t say I knew you personally … but I know tons of people on whom you’ve had an incredible effect. The legacy you leave behind in the Utah cycling community will not be forgotten easily, and hopefully will never be forgotten at all.

I hope that [...]
