I also had the best Unagi I’ve ever eaten in Tokyo. It snowed and was cold while we were there, and I was really happy to find hot tea in vending machines as well as heated toilet seats in every bathroom, even in highway rest areas. We were there for a short trip but the country is beautiful, the people are so nice and polite, and the food is amazing. What is your favorite travel destination and why? Winning on the Roubaix velodrome is also very special. I had great legs and only passed people the whole time. Other than that, winning a Cyclocross World Cup in Roubaix, France after a bad start. My tandem partner and I had a perfect race to win and it was just a great day. I had great legs that day and just felt fast.
The one that stands out the most for me is winning the 3k tandem pursuit at Paralympics in Athens in 2004 (I was a pilot for a blind athlete). I want to choose a specific race where I felt great and had great legs but those, unfortunately, don’t happen as much as one would like. That’s a hard one to answer, I’ve had a lot of really good and fun days.
