I was shocked to learn the death of Dave Schultz. In the February issue of Cycle World, there was a section about him. Even though he was being trated for colon cancer at the time, he managed to beat his opponents in a race. He later said that he needed the victory and it was like a Cinderella story. That was the first time I learned he had cancer but his victory lead me to think "Thank God, he's gonna be OK". Unfortunately this was not the case.



Joey Dunlop, Greg McQuide,Joe Parkhurst, Gordon Jennings, Doug Domokas and now Dave Shultz. My most heartfelt condolonces to their families.
