Owen Hart loved bicycles.

That's something most wrestling fans probably didn't know about the man. Whenever he was off the road, he'd spend a few hours refurbishing old bikes, and he also enjoyed building them from scratch. Owen liked the thought of owning a little bike shop after making enough money from wrestling to retire.

He'd often tell Martha about his plans, and she loved hearing them. It's clear from listening to this part of the podcast that both were just madly in love with one another; Martha only ever wanted Owen to be happy, and she knew that his true happiness came from living a laid-back lifestyle with his wife and children.

Owen and Martha would go cycling whenever they could, and she'd listen as Hart laid out his bike shop dream or told her how he'd put a certain bicycle together. The guy's probs lucky Vince McMahon didn't catch wind of this and turn him into some Tour de France gimmick.
