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

YAPT: Gear Photos. Post yours if / when you get em.

"Yet Another Photo Thread"

Theme for this one, post your close ups of your gears, derailleurs, crank. Bonus for well framed, artistic angles and backgrounds. I'll kick it off with one of my newer shots taken outside my apartment.



I'll jump in with a few other when I dig them back up. I know I have a better gear shot of the 'Cuda around somewhere.

Very nice Cuda!

ViperZ and Rad shouldn't be allowed to participate in these threads. I don't know about anyone else, but I feel like I've brought a knife to a gun fight.

A bit of Campy Super Record action never hurts nobody and is always appreciated
