Subject: bike racing story

I am writing an encyclopedia of hobbies and interests for the North
American market. In addition to a description, photos, and resources, a
personal story will be featured to help readers understand the activity
better. I was hoping that you would you have such a story. If you do, you
can write it or me - either way the end result (of up to 100 words) would
be featured as your quote, with your credits. (And you'd receive an at-cost
discount when the book is published. I work hard to keep its cost as low as
possible.) Maybe you have an amusing anecdote, favorite memory or
interesting story?

For example: The hockey story recounts the exciting last 5 minutes of a
critical game. One of the disc (frisbee) sports is about an amateur who
scored three amazing points against a pro. And the ringette story is about
a little girl who just lost her mother. She joined ringette even though she
had no skating or team sports experience. After 6 years, she is now a
vibrant, confident athlete preparing for a national competition. The animal
trekking story is about a llama that was always left loose in camp at
night. The problem was that occasionally he became bored and would charge
into camp in the middle of the night. When everyone came running out of
their tents in a panic, he'd look as if saying 'While you're up, can I have
a cookie?'

Warm regards,
