"On my bike, and in my head, the words of Tim Krabbé on imperfect recall, they won't leave. The miles roll on by. I selfishly construct the ideal of my ideal cycling photobook.
'Cycling was mythical, but it survived its visibility. In 'Vélo', it becomes a visible myth' - Tim Krabbé"
"Though it seems so almost always from the inside and at least sometimes from out, there is no sense saying a race makes no sense...Yes, as anyone could surmise, my race is not the same as yours but the middle of my race was not the same as the start, and what's more, the middle that happened as it happened is not the middle that happened once the race ends and I begin to recall and reflect and retell... After the finish someone asked me how the race had been. Someone asked all of us. We asked each other. We told it every time the best we could. From the introduction by Bill Strickland."
