"Let's hear more about David Steed. I remember at East coast criteriums the guy used to entertain the crowd with all sorts of cycle gymnastics while everyone else was warming up. Then he would ride respectably in the Cat 2s.
Anybody remember him?"
you bet
i'm pretty sure that his slow riding record was accomplished as a side-show at the coors classic in boulder, probably about 1981 or so. i think that the length of slow riding was much longer than you remember -- maybe as much as 24 hours.
he was a ridiculously good-looking guy, as i recall, and tremendously pleasant, as well.
