So today's post is dedicated to a guy who spends most of his career working for someone else, victory is when the person he worked for wins. But here's a little tidbit for people who don't follow cycling, domestiques are just that, they'll work tirelessly for the leader all in the hopes of bringing that person to the finish first. He won Paris-Roubaix a few weekends ago, and just like any other day started off in support of possibly my favorite rider, Thor. But as luck would have it, he got a chance to go for the win, and he took it. Nothing could stop him, not even a leak/puncture in his tire 5km from the finish. He had the best response to this, "I know how to ride with flats, because sometimes I forget to bring a spare and just ride home with it"
Here's a video of the final kilometers, sorry it's not in English
After the race he proposed to his girlfriend........... with a rock, well specifically the first place cobblestone that he got. "Some people give a ring, I give a rock"
~Cheers
