I don't think I really knew how fit I was when I was a kid. I rode with my dad quite long distances and I've been racing since the age of nine, so we did a lot of sport growing up.

A lot of people don't realize this, but probably the one person that gets made fun of in 'South Park' more than anybody is my dad.
