What a jackass that guy is. Bicycling is a sport which requires more than just pedaling like a "madman".
I think that there are a lot of events out there which are called sports which are not (e.g. bodybuilding - it requires no work only a non-athletic result...and NASCAR, which is operating a non-human powered machine...which makes it a 'motor-sport') but that columnist is a moron, er, exercising his freedom of speech
