When they finally get one, they ride it for a few years until they get a car. One student continued his dreams in bicycle riding. Senior Bobby Si e is training to be a part of the 1988 Olym- pic cycling team and is planning to ac- tually compete in the '92 Olympics. Sipe started getting serious about bike riding when he was a freshman and he and English teacher Tom Vannatta went riding together one day. I thought 'Hey, this is neatl' I ke t riding and got a better bike, Sipe saidl Vannatta introduced Sipe to people at Freewheeling Bike Shop and helped him select riding equipment. Sipe's parents also play a role in his interest. At first my mom thought it was a passing phase. Then I started buying more expensive equipment and she began to realize that I was serious about this. If the weather is good, Sipe rides every day. When he was working, he would ride in the morning. Other times he would ride after school. His job at H.E.B. hasn't hurt his in- terest or schedule. In fact, it helped him quite a bit. A guy comes to the store a lot and he always looks like he's been working out. I noticed him because he has no hair on his legs. CRiders shave their legs in case of injuryl I started talking to him and he invited me to join a group that he had started. This turned out to be Sipe's introduc- tion to an elite riding team called Pen- talon. It's strictly racingg the Austin Bicycle Club, which I also belong to, isn't really racing, Bobby said. Cycling is a sport that requires dedication, good connections and lots of money. Sipe said that he needed to have a job to keep the money coming in. In 1983 Bobby rode in the Tour of Texas with some members of the Raleigh Racing Team. He finished in the top 20 in the Prima Vera, a 17 mile race that starts the cycling season. Sipe's plans include college in Col- orado, close to the Olympic Tourna- ment Center. His goal is to be part of the '88 Olympic team and to race in the '92 games.
