Fireside Chat

Toss on your smoking jacket and tweed as we first party then sit down for an intimate conversation with... ME! Allow myself to repeat the obvious: I'm retiring. But after tackling the sport’s biggest events including the Tour de France, Giro d’Italia, the hallowed Spring Classics, and the world Championships, surely you have a question or two.After 10-years as a racing professional, I decided that the 2015 season would be my last, so join me and my friends at Landry's in Boston as I hang up my helmet and wax poetic with some of the insider’s stories from my time on the saddle. I'm up on stage with Boston cycling legend, the indomitable Richard Fries, who we’re sure will chat about monuments such as Paris-Roubaix and the Tour of Flanders… and my fondness for maple syrup.You’re invited to join the conversation, at Landry’s Bicycles in Boston on Tuesday, November 24.Plus, there will be food and beer and warm apple cider — since this is New England in late fall.6pm doors open, 6:30 event startsTuesday, November 24Landry’s Bicycles890 Commonwealth AvenueBoston, MA 02215This event is FREE and open to the public, with limited number of chairs so be sure to RSVP on the Eventbrite page.
