Anybody who can ride a bike at over 150 mph has mojo to spare. I met and talked to him a few years ago and got the impression that the whole QR controversy bothered him. If anyone would like a little overview on John's testimony <http://www.swhlaw.com/cyclwin.htm>. All I see is a citizen of the state telling a personal story about a bicycle accident. I don't see where it should be John Howard's job to lie under oath just so the bike industry can avoid a lawsuit. I'm sure John isn't too happy what the lawsuit has done for his reputation. I don't think he did anything legally wrong and I see no reason why this incident seems to have wiped out all the other great things he did before the lawsuit. enjoy, Brandon"monkeyman"Ives SB, CA
PS: John was my first major cycling hero so maybe I'm a bit biased.
