  9. #dailymission the missing ingredient for me to become a world-class athlete... A time machine to take me back to my youth so I can stop myself giving up on my training each time in the past.

      There was something I saw someone else added after I answered. I have to many other things I enjoy other than just biking. I can't just dedicate all my time to something that's a young man's sport.
