I don't know why. I can watch an NFL safety tackle someone moving at three hundred miles an hour, or an olympic swimmer decimate the competition -- and yet not feel particularly in awe of their physical prowess. But when I watch guys like this on a god-damned bicycle -- a vessel most of my youth was spent either on, around or falling off of -- I feel violent envy. Nice soundtrack selection.
