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

I am Bob Roll - No mojo

I've got to be 0 for 24 or 25 on that *&$*ing Trek bike game. I'd like to see Trek actually publish or post the winners of the big prizes, if anyone actually wins them that is.......

Same here, and I've also had no luck at the LBS scratching the cards there.

I'm probably close to 0-25 myself.

I should sign the gf up so I can play twice per day.

In the rules it states that you can send a SASE to them and they will send you a list of winners.

I am 0 for whatever too.

That's not what 1:35 odds means. On average, you'll win one in 35 tries, but you could certainly play a thousand times and still not win anything. You would simply be exceptionally unlucky.

0-for whatever. Lousy! My better half too. You'd figure between us we'd win at least a key chain or something.

0 for everything here too. Now I know what it feels like to be Bob Roll... Do I have to learn to use the over the top hand gestures and say "tour day franse"?

Today I scratched off just the top of all three squares. They all said LiveStrong.

With my heart pounding, I scratched the bottom.
