Yeah sounds like a plan, he also sold his kidney

get your spleen removed too. race naked. you can save weight by not using a seat or seat post. headsets are for pansies. just throw some grease on the steerer and race.

I've noticed that too (no gloves on Roland), not sure about why though. I get bad blisters on my hands if I ride without gloves. That, and gloves offer protection from tree branches, bushes, rocks, and crashes.
