The incident, which the multi-time champion calls "the scariest moment of my life," took place while he was on one of his usual training loops. His route included a stretch of the bike path alongside the concrete-paved Los Angeles River. "À work-crew was re-paving a section and had put a detour that sent you onto the city streets," Juarez explained. Unfortunately, those city streets were in one of the roughest areas of North Long Beach. "I had stopped at this park for minute to get water, figure out how to continue my ride, and to change the music in my Walkman, when I felt a tap on my shoulder." Juarez turned to see a gun pointed at his face. The gunman demanded Juarez's Cannondale Six13road bike and his cell phone. "I don't think the guy has any idea of what he has," Juarez observed, "When he rode off you could see he didn't know how to ride it---he wobbled off with it still in a big gear." Juarez surmises that his $5800 bike was "probably traded for a $50 bag of whatever." http://forums.mtbr.com/showthread.php?t=31370
Hacia tiempo que no tenia noticias de Tinker, para mi uno de los mejores, el mas anarkiko, siempre con su música, sin entrenos especificos, solo montar en bici y disfrutar. Bueno eso antes, ahora no se si lo habrán hecho entrar en vereda. Saludos :mrgreen:
Era el rey Tinker, siempre con la paella metida y arrastrando un desarollo de mil demonios. Con esas Adroit pintaditas tan bien :roll:
... y por que no sigue los consejos del forero que llevaba una AK 42 en el Camelback? Os imagianis la escena? - (Ladron): Dame la bici - (Tinker): Dame todo lo que lleves....
