There are a couple black guys around here that ride and there is one guy that is quite fast and has a beautiful black colnago c-40 that I lust after. I see him quite often when I am commuting.

I don't recall ever, be it on tv or in person, seeing a black road cyclist. I don't remember Nelson Vails. I've done Solvang with 6000 riders and I remember realizing I hadn't seen one black man or woman riding in the event.
