Greg Lemond on the cover. Joe Murray wins the Pacific States Series. I covered bicycle racing, specifically but not exclusively mountain bike racing, for Winning. It’s easy money. The stories write themselves, All I had to do was check the spelling.
Category: My Own Articles
This area is for my published articles, most of them from the ’70s and ’80s..
While writing and publishing the Fat Tire Flyer, I also contributed articles for other cycling magazines such as Dirt Rag, Bicycling, Bicycle Guide, Cyclist, and bicycle magazines in other countries. After the Fat Tire Flyer went out of print, I accepted an editorial position from Rodale Press.
Here is a random sample of my other work..
Winning, June 1985
I profiled Ned Overend for the beginning of the racing season. John Ross built excitement for the Pacific States Series.
Cyclist, April 1985
This issue of Cyclist featured two articles about Charlie Cunningham, as well as my report on the 1984 National Cyclocross Championships.
American Bicyclist (and Motorcyclist)
This was the unreadable, least influential, and most useless of the trade magazines. They paid me to write shitty articles. Because I had no pride, I took their money. Here is one of those articles
Winning, March 1985
This issue featured a couple of mountain bike articles. I wrote one of them.
