If you had the chance, what would you ask Floyd?

Why am I asking such a semi-rhetorical question? Because this Monday, it won’t be so rhetorical for me.

One of my stories was published in the book “Cycling’s Greatest Misadventures,” so I’ve got a reading and (Lord help me), a book signing on Monday, July 2 here in West Chester, PA. However, when you peruse the ‘Events’ calendar, it would appear that I won’t be the main draw that night.

So he’ll be there. The most controversial cyclist in the recent history of the Tour. If given the chance to speak with him, what would you say? Personally, I’ll be fascinated to just sit back and see what the room does. It’s not like I’d get him to confess anything in a 10-15 second chat, but I’m sure some of you can come up with some true gems.

Just leave the LeMond “Hide the weenie” thing off the table, okay? That’s just…yuck.

Why do you need a boat to hunt squirrels? Still can’t figure that one out.

Well…first I would read his book before I asked any questions.

But I would like to know what he was thinking, what he did to recover, after that major bonk before his big win the next day.

Then - what got him into cycling, and when did he know he was ‘hooked’?

Remember that time that you were racing in the Tour de France, on the 17th stage, and you drank like 27 gallons of water, and beat everybody by a huge lead?

That was AWESOME!

Ask him why he rode a crappy Trek on his Tour win instead of a Cervelo since he could’ve been so much faster with one.

Also, ask him for Greg LeMond’s cell phone number.

Classic.

Er, that would be a BMC

Who’s the mystery doctor helping out the cycling mafia?
