What Would Ned Do ?


Almost old enough to get in half price at the movies, Ned Overend is still one of the greatest cyclists on the planet. He is Mongo's Sensei for all things geriatric on a bike.

When I'm feeling sluggish and lazy on a ride, I think WWND, and then I stop feeling sorry for myself and pull up my panties.

Today Mongo dug deep and chased down a semi-poseur on a purple Merckx. The dude on the Eddy looked back one too many times and I realized he was scared and getting tired. With blood in the water...It was on!

It took about five miles, but thanks to Ned, another carbon fiber fantasy has been crushed by an old guy on aluminum.
