A short ode to collegiate cycling

This post will be quick.

I think collegiate cycling is one of the greatest things you can do in college (or in my case, grad school). It’s the most team-focused cycling I think somebody can participate in without being a professional. 

I wish I would have been cognizant of the sport when I was in college. I mean, I knew of cycling as a sport. My cousin had raced bikes for years, but there was nothing at Tulane like a cycling team.

Being part of the UT cycling team was fantastic. The one bad thing about graduating from graduate school was that I could no longer participate. 

Now, both Tulane and LSU have cycling teams. In fact, Tulane is hosting a race in New Orleans and LSU is hosting the conference championships this year. That is fantastic.

So hook’em to my UT Cycling friends, geaux tigers, and roll green wave!
