The Shorts--Pedaling to Silence

from The Dirtbag Diaries · host Duct Tape Then Beer

Greg May signed up as a rookie for the 24 Hours of Exposure at the heckling of his friends. But as he stood on the start line he felt under prepared, under biked, and overweight. "Probably not the thought you want before your first 24 hour mountain bike race." Though Greg wanted to finish, he'd also needed a distraction from writing his Ph.D. thesis.

As he nerared the finish line, he wondered whether his body could finish what he had started.  CLICK HERE TO LISTEN
