Bobke-Bob Roll

Check out this site. Below is just a sample. www.bobroll.com

Bobke 's Ten Commandments should be a required memory exercise for all you two- wheelers out there. Close your eyes and visualize God appearing in front of Roll one night during the Giro d'Italia holding two Bloody Marys, asking him to jot down a cyclist's Ten Commandments.

X. Thou shalt not take the name of Eddie Merckx in vain

IX. Thou shalt be screamed at by one Grewal or another

VIII. Thou shalt be screwed by one cycling federation or another

VII. Thou shalt have your bike destroyed and luggage lost by airlines

VI. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's bike swag

V. Thou shalt pee in cup eventually

IV. Thou shalt be thrashed, trashed, crashed and smashed by someone younger and stronger than you

III. Thou shalt wear your helmet on every ride

II. Thou shalt not touch thy front brake while negotiating off-camber switchback turns

I. Thou shalt crash and look like a fool sooner or later

Halleluiah and Amen, Brother Bobke!
