David “Going Global” Goldberg | Tour Divide 2011 Racer<\/p><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

Age:<\/strong> 50<\/p>\n

Hometown:<\/strong> Fort Collins, Colorado<\/p>\n

Quote:<\/strong> “This is more than a bike race…it’s way more. Riding your bike is only about half of it. Physically and mentally surviving it are a wholly different thing. You know, you could be the best cross-country bike racer in the world, but it doesn’t mean that you are prepared for this. The endless hours by yourself in the middle of nowhere…just endless walking through snow and frozen feet, cold hands…”<\/p>\n
