Hi Guys , went for a biking event in the French Alpes Called the Alpe du Zes

This event was to raise money for the Cancer foundation , our team of 36 sailors raised $ 300.000,- for research on this horrible desease.
with me and my team there were 25 thousand vistors on the mountain amd 8000 bikers spread over 2 days and all togheter we almost touched 30 Milion !!!
June 6th i was on the bike for 7,5 hours and did the climb to the top 2 times.
today 5 days later I start to feel my old self again.

The question is , why can a 6foot 7 guy , a smoker and a beer drinking fan and weiging 250 pounds , fight its way to the top 2 times and live , and the sweetest people in the world can't survive a stupid desease..............
Its UNFAIR !!!

Iam the slow guy in the video..:).

Stop smoking.

When you come to NY, I'll show you the scar that you earn when they remove one of your lungs.

Gert,

Two words when it comes to biking, blood doping. Ask Lance.

Gert,

You CAN drink beer, but I don't know why anyone would want to. Not since they invented Scotch, anyway......

Bourbon, a fine product made in the USA!
