Tony Kornheiser, Still A Raging Douche!

Tony Kornheiser really doesn't sound sorry for his ridiculous "Run down the cyclist" rant that he went on. Listen to Tony and Lance Armstrong speak about it on Tony's radio show here. Personally, I feel like Lance really went soft on him. By the end of the interview Tony and even Lance are just using this as an opportunity to promote themselves. FAIL!

Phil Wood Passed Away

84-year old Phil Wood (@PhilWoodCo) passed away today on his farm in Baxter, Iowa. Since 1971, the Phil Wood Company specialized in hub and other bicycle component manufacturing. In 1991, he sold the company to Peter Enright and other investors. Most of us first came to know Phil Wood's products through the popularity of their track hubs. Reliable, handmade in the US, hubs that set the standard for modern wheel builds. Let's all observe a moment of silence today for Phil Wood. His contributions to the bicycle industry are undeniable.
