It's a story about a black cyclist trying to make it in the big-time cycling world; nothing wrong with that! It's relevant because of Grant's concern, which I generally share, though I don't agree, or at least, think I don't agree, with his prescription.
I personally find the differences among the races fascinating, and *vive les differences!* I say. BTW, one doesn't see many Filipinos or South Asians (for example) in the pro ranks; why is that? I don't think it is only racial prejudice by any means. On Wed, Dec 2, 2020 at 5:44 AM Garth <garth...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Patrick, Well ain't that a kicker.... he's a cyclist... period.
