Pontiac Lake Race Report

Dr. Wyle: "So what have you been doing?"

Me: "Racing my bike."

Dr. Wyle: "Mountain Bike?"

Me: "Of course."

Dr. Wyle: "So HOW are you doing?"

Me: (with as much humility as I could muster...)"I took third in the Elite/Expert class Sunday."

Dr. Wyle: "You are giving Multiple Sclerosis a bad name."

Me: "I am alright with that."

Dr. Wyle: "Keep doing it. You'd be stupid not to."


I love my neurologist. He gets why I do what I do. It's not to impress anyone. It's not to podium. Those things are cool and all, but I do it because...



I can.


...I hope I never forget that.
