There is this guy named Mike Friedman….
Many of you people know him, many of you might not. This guy has more determination and will power than just about anybody I have ever seen. He has been tried and tested for most of his cyclist and athlete carreer. Accusations, speculations, finger pointing, and much more. He has built me up so much that I cannot even begin to think about where I would be without him in my training, racing, and normal life. Ya I know that I have other friends that I am close with and that I have been around for many years, but Mike and me….it is just different. Not Homosexual different, but more of a great friendship and relationship that has been built over the past 2ish years.
What am I getting at…….
Well Mike has a huge problem and needs your prayers. He has a blood clot in his lungs most likely caused from his long journey across the country back to PA. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers. He is facing a possiable 3 to 6 months of no real racing or training due to the medications. Right now he is starting a two day stay in a PA hospital for monitoring.
I just do not know what more to say…………….I miss ya buddy

I just saw Mike a week ago when he came to State College. A year ago I had a blood clot scare of my own. Do you have an address where I could send Mike a note? Could you email that to jlb751@psu.edu. Thanks!
