There are lots of stories there's products there's everything we hope that will help you find your next chapter in

cycling your next chapter in cycling. Wittgenstein firmly believed that people think that art and people

think generally in the 20th century that art and music are in our lives simply to entertain us, right?

But as I understand it, he would contend that they are not there simply to entertain, they

are there to educate and to advance culture.

He said that about art and music.

I have no idea, frankly, what Wittgenstein's relationship to professional road racing was for cycling.

Although I understand when he lived in Cambridge he did used to ride his bike around.

But I would put into the same, having witnessed today's race, David, I would put into the same category as art and music, I would put cycling.

It's there to entertain, but it's there to educate.

And you learn so much from a bike race like today about all sorts.

Psychology, human nature, frailty, ambition, desire, you know, the vim and vigor of youth and the upward trajectory and the the

grisly experience of age it was all on display today yeah I I mean, I think that concept of philosophy and the idea that what separates us from animals and from barbarians is an appreciation of art.

And so we then project it very quickly

into this idea that it's snobbery, it's pretentious, it's upper-class middle class, it's wealth, but no, you can do it wherever you are.

And it's, it offers you a vehicle out of the norm, out to just be yourself, find your place.
