Welcome to the Cycling Hall of Fame.

Baseball. Football. Basketball. It seems that every sport has its Hall of Fame. Cycling is no exception.

That Eddy Merckx has a place there doesn\’t surprise me. He was the greatest rider of his generation. Some say he\’s the greatest cyclist ever.

OK, so how does one get into the HoF? It\’s about more than being a champion rider; more than winning an Olympic gold medal; or even winning the Tour de France. For the mountain bike folks, it goes like this. There\’s also this way.

I\’ll never make it into the Cycling Hall of Fame, unless riding a century on an adult trike counts! But I might not be the only one who ever did that, and I didn\’t do it to raise funds for a worthy cause. I just wanted to see if I could do it; and I did!
