jon Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 (edited) Now, I don't expect any of you to know who these people are in this picture, or what race this is, or what sport this is for that matter, but there is a guy in this picture who accomplished a pretty awesome thing today after experiencing a pretty tragic event in the last 6 months. He happens to post on this board otherwise I wouldn't waste your time with this. Nice work baller! http://www.cyclingnews.com/road/2009/mar09/tirreno09/index.php?id=/photos/2009/mar09/tirreno09/tirreno093/PIC10818328 Edited March 13, 2009 by jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dane Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Really hard race in a tough sport! Good on him! Looks liek he is doing well, best wishes that his father is as well. "I’m kinda lucky because I only broke my collarbone. It could have been a lot worse," Farrar told VeloNews. "Hitting the deck at 60kph isn’t fun." "Dr. Ed Farrar, a prominent Wenatchee orthopedic physician and father of professional bicyclist Tyler Farrar, sustained a "serious spine injury" in a bicycling accident when a car hit him head-on. The 57-year-old physician has been an orthopedic surgeon at Wenatchee Orthopedics for 25 years." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil K Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Good job. Yeah, Cavendish is starting to be one of the faster sprinters out there... Starting? No disrespect to Mister Farrar, but Cav has been at the top of the game for a few years now. Apparently his leadout went amiss today, but we haven't seen the last of him in TDF 2011. Awesome performance today by Farrar, who is by all reports, quite a nice guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
