Cycling is a sport of the open road and spectators are lining that road.

A bicycle is the long-sought means of transportation for all of us who have runaway hearts.

If we don't somehow stem the tide of childhood obesity, we're going to have a huge problem.

In my most painful moments on the bike, I am at my most curious and I wonder each and every time how I will respond.

I wanted to win the Tour de France. And when I won it once, I wanted to do it again, and again, and again, it just kept going. So there wasn't another competitive environment.

For most of my life I had operated under a simple schematic of winning and losing, but cancer was teaching me a tolerance for ambiguities.

My cocktail, so to speak, was only EPO, but not a lot, transfusions and testosterone.
