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

It's not the number of inches, it's what you do with it.







As in, shovel it or..umm....blow it.

I've got 8"

Just the fact that you can admit that means you're a bigger man than I.

That's called manscaping, and unsurprisingly, it's already been covered here at Bike Forums.

I'm surprised. Given your location there should be plenty hard-up ones ready to work it.
