Floyd is a good guy. He is from my hometown area in PA. He still lives there with his family. He has always been a great embassador for biking in that area. We need it too. (not real bike friendly there) He comes from a Mennonite family upbringing, very courteous, quiet and polite. I'm very proud to say we got the biking bug from the very same roads he did. I've seen him around the area when he was home but I never got to ride with him, although I'd welcome the opportunity. He is still the Tour winner in my mind.

Great story. Thanks for sharing it with us. Tell your hubby he definitely has bragging rights for passing Floyd, even for just a little bit. That is a feat not many biking mortals can claim.
