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

Funny description indeed, if his gf ever existed.

Wonder if he is going to sell the authographed picture he bought on Jan-23, too (sounds like there was a problem with the seller's feedback..).

Even though I'm currently unemployed and shouldn't be spending money on this stuff - I feel like making a bid just to show the guy some support
