- When I lived in western New York, Boyd was just a punk kid hanging with us old folks on group rides. Then he got strong and rode as a pro before opening Boyd Cycling. Read more about him and his wheels here.
- Cyclist Leah Goldstein beat everyone, including the men, in the Race Across America. Read about how she did it here.
- Tapering for a race, whether cycling or running, can be tricky. You want to be fresh, but still well-trained. Read more about how to taper here.
- Traveling to a new area to ride or run is one of the great joys of endurance sports. I usually look for adventures in different states to explore new-to-me parts of the country, including the Texas Hill Country mentioned in the article. Read more here.
