Tim started racing his bike on Tuesday and Thursday like training series on it's called River Road in Baton Rouge. from the a Baton Rouge Bicycle Club, Time moved on to the LSU Cycling club. you didn't have to go to LSU to be a part of the cycling club. We talk about his time as an exchange student spending time in France in 1993 where he also raced and got to experience what it’s like riding in Europe.
When Tim returned to the US, he started racing for a team called Tokyo Joe's. Tim talks about how it was riding for this team "essentially the Bad News Bears of us Pro Cycling" and the races he competed in.
Geoff and Tim call up memories how it was racing in the US back in those days, competing with Jittery Joe and riding against Gord Fraser, Chris Tilton and others.
