Dave Zabriskie website...

  • Article

Monday, I came across a reference to a website by Team CSC racer Dave Zabriskie in, of all places, a copy of Bicycling magazine. Bicycling is not known for their race coverage in the same way as Seattlelites are not know for their winter driving prowess.

Apparently, Zabriskie has become known for doing one-sentence interviews with riders in the peleton. Here's a nice one:

I know the Tour is well over but I do have one more interview to share. It is with Thor Hushvod of Credit Agricole:
DZ: Thor what does it feel like to have the coolest name in the peleton?
TH: I didn’t know it was a cool name.
DZ: Trust me it is.
TH: O.k. then. It feels pretty cool then.
DZ: Thanks for the interview.

You have to like somebody who does that.

    You're right, the interviews is quite fun :)

    DZ: Stuart O’Grady can I ask you a question?
    S.O: Yes.
    DZ: Have you ever done any Kangaroo Boxing?
    S.O: Negative
    (another rider tells him, "you know that is going on his website?")
    S.O: In that case I have done a little pub boxing.
    DZ: Thanks.

    One thing leads to another. I was surprised that Zabriske was in the vicinity:

    I am also surprised that the Merckx's were also in the vicinity.

    Another cool thing is that both teams have chosen the same bikes that I own/ride (or is it the other way around?) Cervelo P3 and Look 585 :-)

    It’s nice to be both a computer and a cyclist geek.
