Portland, Oregon won't build a mile of the road without a mile of the bike path. You can commute there, even with that weather, all the time.

No one automatically gives you respect just because you show up. You have to earn it

We are much better than we know.

It's ironic, I used to ride my bike to make a living. Now I just want to live so that I can ride.

Pain is only temporary. Quitting is forever!

We have two options, medically and emotionally: give up or fight like hell.

Chasing records doesn't keep me on my bike. Happiness does.

There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say: 'Enough is enough.'

Through my illness I learned rejection. I was written off. That was the moment I thought, Okay, game on. No prisoners. Everybody's going down.

The day it all changed. The day I stated never to take anything for granted. The day I learned to take charge of my life. It was the day I was diagnosed with cancer.

I exercise every day. I swim, I bike, I run and I go to the gym.

The body is telling the mind to stop. The mind is telling the body to shut up.

I believe that the mind powers the body, and once the mind says we want to do it, then the body will follow.

My house is burned, but I can see the sky.

My advice to you is never stop believing.

Truth is, a triathlete won the Tour de France seven times.

I rode, and I rode, and I rode. I rode like I had never ridden, punishing my body up and down every hill I could find. I rode when no one else would ride.

Motivation can't take you very far if you don't have the legs.

A boo is a lot louder than a cheer.
