Sup Borger I too went to college with Neil and it doesn't surprise me one bit he is succeeding wonderfully. He was valedictorian and has a rare combination of both physical and mental talent. On top of it he is kind and genuine, which makes it hard to be envious of his success.

This is such an inspiring story. I don't see myself as one that could accomplish the same thing, I can't even keep up with the riders in my local club, but I hope many more stories like this are presented here.

not to mention he's one of the smartest people I know. College class valedictorian, well-rounded, ridiculous skier, pole vaulter, raft guide, ladies man, old roommate, best friend, humble nice guy. Congrats Neil. You're the man

Good story – looks like he's got a good shepherd to lead him through the peloton in Myerson.

Long live OBRA! More states should dump USCF and create their own racing organization.

Congrats, good story. GS Mengoni. Long live that team. Used to love watching Steve Bauer crush for them in the early 80s.

as a former teammate, I can say that Neil is the kind of person you want to see succeed as he is as humble as he is fast. If things did not go his way in a race, he would think about why rather than complain about why. He is a gentleman always, in victory and defeat.
