What's that saying about "picking on people your own size"? Georges Laraque is probably 4 times bigger than me, is an adamant proponent of vegan-ism, and has an impressive 13 year NHL career that he finished off with the Montréal Canadiens in the bank.
He is also convinced that he can beat me in a cycling race in Montréal.... Game on. I'm up for the challenge.

ReplyDeleteHe might show up with an electric bike!
ReplyDeleteElectric bike won't be of any use, Georges will need a Harley to beat Lex up the "Houde".

ReplyDeleteIt's not even fair... He may be a pro athlete, in retirement that is, but he is also huge/heavy, and this is a hill climb.
ReplyDeleteIs the race still on with the snow?
