He was among an exclusive class of 950 to finish the current year's Bob Cook Memorial race, a close yearly occasion since 1962.Yet his ride was not the same as every one of the rides that cyclists have made up the top close to Idaho Springs since the main running of the race. Tierney was the primary man at any point to at any point endeavor – and complete – the race on one wheel.
