I think life is really hard sometimes. It's not easy to wake up every day and go through what you go through.

While it is a very hard and sometimes very cruel profession, my love for the bike remains as strong now as it was in the days when I first discovered it.

I see my grandfather, now in his seventies and riding around everywhere. To me that is beautiful. And the bike must always remain a part of my life. — Stephen Roche
