Riding with Legendary Pros – Or Sort Of
Guest post by Kevin Shutt, freelance contributor to Florida Cycling Newsletter
Recently I joined about 90 riders to toe the line with former cycling pros, Bob Roll and Christian Vande Velde, (yes that duo of Tour de France legend and now international cycling broadcast commentators).
I’m strong enough to hold my own with a peloton rolling at 23+ mph when I can hide in the draft.
The “Ride with the Legends” event, hosted by St. Petersburg Bicycle Club (SPBC) on Feb. 21, brought out several hundred star-struck cyclists for three events throughout the day, culminating with a members-only evening and “Stories from Two Legends.”
