One Hundred Fifty-Four

Ricky Martin is cool!

#112 Ricky Martin, Portland, OR – This man lives la vida loca on his bike…literally. Martin hasn’t owned a car for 10 years and when he’s not walking, sleeping or sitting in a chair he’s riding. If there’s a being in the universe with less fat on its body than Wade Baker it’s Martin. Ricky’s background is as a mountain bike racer but he is equally competitive on the road. Martin has all the tools to do well at RAO – he’s an amazing climber yet has great speed on the flats. If he can keep his competitiveness in check to the base of Ochoco he will be a factor at the finish. I’ve never seen anyone climb Timberline Road as effortlessly as Martin. Not a guy you want anywhere near you in the final miles of RAO.

However, I heard he hasn't driven a car for 19 years!
