Amtrak offers riders a cost-effective way to travel throughout the country.

Especially with the signing of riders with climbing abilities and the new arrival of Tyler Hamilton who has the strength and ability to become a great leader for the big tours. All in all I feel this is a very complete team.

My strength was that I am more balanced and calmer than most other riders.

While I will always have the utmost respect for the superhuman out-of-bounds freestyle and extreme stunts that seem to continually progress beyond our imaginable limits my highest appreciation goes out to the simple rider who's out there just for the experience.

Are ideals confined to this deformed experiment upon a noble purpose tainted as it is with bargains and tied to a peace treaty which might have been disposed of long ago to the great benefit of the world if it had not been compelled to carry this rider on its back?

I sit astride life like a bad rider on a horse. I only owe it to the horse's good nature that I am not thrown off at this very moment.

Riding a motorcycle on today's highways you have to ride in a very defensive manner. You have to be a good rider and you have to have both hands and both feet on the controls at all times.

The will is a beast of burden. If God mounts it it wishes and goes as God wills if Satan mounts it it wishes and goes as Satan wills Nor can it choose its rider... the riders contend for its possession.

In closing I wish to say that while I was sorely beset by a number of white riders in my racing days I have also enjoyed the friendship of countless thousands of white men whom I class as among my closest friends.

The legal difference between the sit-ins and the Freedom Riders was significant.
