Richard Pestes - The PEZ
I started PEZ in Feb '02 because I felt there was a lack of "entertainment" in the way bike racing news was reported. I was tired of reading the same old race reports and not having enough insight to what riders, managers, directeurs, and fans really think of our sport. I knew there was a lot more to be said, so decided to "say it myself" and started PEZCycling News, and my own vision of what we really want to read, see, and enjoy about our sport.

The PEZ Philosophy
I think that bike riding about the most fun a person can have, and I want to present articles, reports, pictures, and views that are just more fun to read. A peek at a cycling website should be a fun escape from the stuff that's pulling you in a bunch of different directions - (i.e. your life).

From the first look at our site you can see the difference - bold colors and graphics, content limited to a couple of good, newsworthy stories a day (okay - at least what I deem are good & newsworthy...). But I like to think we go deeper - so when you read a story, you see we also take a serious look at cycling without taking ourselves too seriously. After all, we're really just offering up our own opinions on events that we observe.

We do try to achieve a standard of editorial "quality" that you cannot find elsewhere. So I hope you read our stuff and find that it brightens your day, and if you see something you like, please tell your friends. If you see something you don't like, please tell us!

Thanks for reading and I hope you continue to enjoy our "entertainment".
