Whatever I won in cycling, I won with my own skills. I never won anything I couldn't win. For example, I never won a time trial at 60 kph, whereas others have and maybe still do.

For example, in my own State of Arizona, an Israeli scientist is working with an Arizona company on a demonstration project involving a very fast-growing algae which can be used to power a biomass energy plan.

Some books are serials, not to be mistaken for anything else. 'The Two Towers,' for example, ought never to be read in isolation.

I let my game do the talking. I've had incidents like that but when I compare my own story to the stories that have happened forty or fifty years ago particularly to Jackie Robinson for example.

People are often quite surprised by the sport and leisure activities practised by the blind. For example, tandem cycling is very popular.

Whatever happens I'll take the start, but in this state that might be the best I can hope for. This week the pain was bearable, because we weren't forcing things very much in training, but today I was stuck and in these conditions it was useless to continue.
