Everything I do is premeditated.
I am not up there by chance. I am there by choice. And I know the wire. And I know my limits. And I am a madman of details.
Everything in our society is so purposeful.

Calculated and craven political stunt.

I'm certainly not a baby kissing, hand slapping, rah rah good guy. I definitely think there's more of an edge to my character.
If I couldn't compete, I wouldn't ride. I don't ride for fun; I ride to prepare for the next competition, and everything that I do when I am in the saddle is always a calculated step in my path to the next win.
I'm not pretending to be ingenuous; I know what I'm doing.
I don't like spontaneity; there you go. I'm wary of it.

At a better pace, slower and more calculated No chance of escape.
I tend to be cautious and rational, prone to keep everything under control.
