Steve Tilford is Why We Ride | Bicycling

Headlines are quick hits from media outlets from Missouri and around the world. Follow the headline link for the full story. The source of this headline says:

Tilford raced that first championship against people who, in the 15 years since, stopped competing and became brands, like Tom Ritchey and Joe Murray, or legends, like Alexi Grewal, the gold-medal winner in the ‘84 Olympic road race.

But this is not a story about age. This is a story about the thing you want to ask Tilford after you get through with age, after you know about how he stitches up his own wounds, after you hear about the world championship race he tried to finish by walking backwards, after you find out about the time 40 people rode over his head. This is a story about why we ride.
