Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Obsessive Compulsive Poser.

A friendly term some of us use on ourselves to describe our enthusiasm for all bike related bling. People who don't know us would swear from all our talk that we would rather pose on our bikes than actually ride them.

agreed... it's just so smooth and sexy. I've decided that by next year around this time, I'm going to get myself an Independent Fabrications crown jewel with carbon stays... and that orange/white paint scheme is really tempting
