I used to ride my bike so that I could be seen clearly from the road. I thought I was an excellent bike rider and it was just a matter of time before some professional bike scouts would see me out riding and think, "Hey, that girl's got real talent." Of course, I would have to leave my family behind and train day and night in the sport of bike riding, but that was a sacrifice I was willing to take. Never happened. Could be because I lived on the outskirts of a VERY small town and there were no bike riding scouts there.
