Young Competitor

My Nephew Daniel Dessau's son Michael Dessau after the win.

Daniel Dessau wrote:
Michael won the Junior Men's 13-14 National Championship Road Race on July 28, in Bend Oregon. We are super happy and proud of him. It was super hot (95 degrees) and a tough and hilly 40 km (25 mile) course (7 laps of a 5 km circuit plus 2.5 km in and out to the circuit). From the 60 starters 7 boys formed a group about half way through, and Michael said that he could tell he was probably the strongest of these 7. On the 2.5 km back to the finish they shed 4 riders and then 1 more, so Michael was left with a 2 up sprint for the line. Michael won this handily, giving him lots of time to celebrate before the line.

The Final Tonight Show with Jay Leno

When Jay Leno's old office at NBC was cleaned, a petrified submarine sandwich dating back to his first show was discovered. Apocryphal.
