Damn that was some good stuff, especially since I've got [censored] on my boots like him and love Zabel too!
One thing that urks me about that article is when they say that Kelly just got back from a "training ride". What is it he's training for again? Why nothing. So it AIN'T a training ride. It's just a ride.
I'm really getting tired of people who say they go on training rides when all it is is a fast ride. This concentration on speed for nothing more than the sake of speed is going to screw up the sport yet. If all you ever do is torture yourself sooner or later you're going to stop riding. I've seen a lot of riders disappear over the years because of that.

Tom, I have never been as proud of you as I am now.
This one really stands out. And that says a lot. But it's right up there with the Hanson brother asking Shaun Wallace if he's ever ridden a fixed gear. Right up there with Sierraman's meltdown. Dave Bailey's bowel movement in Plano. This is one that people will remember.
Yes, Sean Kelly should back off a little, lest he burn out.

You are beautiful.
Please reread SM's meltdown. Now try that comparison again; it will stick in your throat. The fixation on women's cycling alone puts it among the immortals.

Not nearly as beautiful as a stupid jackass such as yourself telling us all that Sean Kelly said that he was on a training ride and not some witless "journalist" with almost as much brains as you think you have.

I don't think it was so much the fixation on womens' cycling that made it odd, but that he always tried to make out like his interest was pure. Unfortunately, the extremely frequent references to "babes" kinda gave that game away. I have to agree with Bob, though. This is a classic and certainly should be remembered.

If I were inclined toward bad puns, I would say, "Here's looking at Chu, kid", but I'm not, fortunately.
At least not since my wife sicc'd the Scotties on me for repeating, "Super calloused fragile mystic, extra halitosis" in the presence of company. Fortunately, the Scotties were busy gagging in the corner.

Well, yeah ... Creep out.

Not saying otherwise. Attempting to express my perspective.

Well, that's pretty much what I thought. I think we should strive to have a list of the classic posts and threads added to the FAQ (along with a copy of Kunich's resumé). I'd say the Two Guns thread would certainly qualify.

I get a thrill just thinking about it. Sorry I did not see it live.
