I was born and raised in Bogotá, Colombia, but now live in the United
States. It's for this reason that I often, but not exclusively, write
about Colombia within the context of cycling. My admittedly second-rate
writing represents my attempt to help document a nation's history within
the sport.
The blog's tone is decidedly schizophrenic, with one post
focusing on Colombia's cycling history, and the next being about Johan
Museeuw's hair implants. If you're willing to put up with that lack of
focus, you may enjoy the blog.

Love your blog. There is always a lack of information on Colombian cycling heroes and I love to hear more about them.
ReplyDeleteI love to hear more about Herrera, Wilches and Parra. They were famous in the 80s but almost all the information I could find was in Spanish which I do not know.
And when they talked about the Columbia cycling teams in the 2000s, I always thought they were talking about the CdC squad.
Great Blog! Thank you for the Colombian cycling history! I am married to a Colombian, but was a cycling fanatic well before. It is something that me and her Father have bonded over. And he gets me local team kits from the teams every holiday. I have even gotten to ride down there, with Botero and ouch it hurt. But a ton of fun! Thanks again for the great blog.
