Dear Editor;Thanks for the live coverage. As someone who doesn't get OLN I look forward to your live coverage of the classics. The only problem is that it has been taking away from my graduate school work. I keep checking back every five minutes instead of studying!! I may fail, but at least I'll know how the sprint finished. Keep up the great work.Todd ShapiroTodd, we appreciate your comments, but would also like to apologize for the spotty coverage we've had out of the Tour of Georgia this year. We seem to have a good system in place for the big European races and will have a full crew

Hey Bob,Can I get in any legal trouble, or am I breaking any laws, by motor-pacingmy friend behind my Subaru? --PatHillsboro, Oregon Dear Pat;As you will read, I do not recommend that you motor pace your friend,but if you do, I offer the legal ramifications as well as some basic advice.This is the classic “do as I say not as I do” lecture. In fact, when Iwas racing and training, I was not even smart enough to limit my motorpacing to willing and complicit drivers. I was riding a borrowed cyclo-cross bike with limited gearing and wasspun out going downhill with my head down, when the woman I
