摔車勵誌語錄:
下一次你開著40英裏(64碼)時速的汽車,想象一下跳車的感覺。感覺就像衣不蔽體,這就是我們摔車時候的場景。——大衛·米勒
Next time you are in a car travelling at 40mph think about jumping out – naked. That's what it's like when we crash. ——David Millar
每一次的摔車都使得我們慢慢失去了孩童時的無畏。我日漸成熟,卻愈發謹慎;這延長了我的職業生涯,卻讓我失去了勝利的機會。——邁克爾·巴裏(曾經的加拿大職業車手,現在的作家)
With each crash we slowly lose the fearlessness of a child. Caution, which blossoms with maturity, has lengthened my career but may have cost me victories. ——Michael Barry
我感到非常驚訝,參加環法自行車比賽的人如此之多,而他們卻毫無防護。一旦他們發生摔車,很可能會骨折,他們的比賽就結束了。他們用幾年的時間苦練、控製飲食,一次摔車就能讓所有的努力化為烏有。我很驚訝這是那麼脆弱。——Joël Santoni(《La Course en tête》有關莫克斯紀錄片由他導演)
I was so amazed by the number of people falling in the biggest races and how naked they are. When they fell in the road bones were broken, and the race for them was finished. They would spend the year suffering, dieting and then all was lost. I was amazed by how fragile it was. ——Joël Santoni
