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

Horrible dreams...

Here's my story. My gf kept moving around in bed so I couldn't really go into a deep sleep and I kept having this dream about being in this girl's apartment (ok so I have this thing for this girl I keep seeing on the subway the few times I take it who happens to look like lee lee sobieski).

Anyway enough of that, she decides to take a walk so I walk outside and there's this english guy in a suit riding around on a regular road bike, sti shifters, except it had this thing that looks like this except that in place of the bike, it's just a single Lightweight wheel. When I asked him why, he said it was for stability.

Just then, a middle aged woman shows up on a hybrid with the same thing. And then I see jan ullrich bombing down the street with one. That was a real mind f**k cause I was like, damn, maybe I'm doing something wrong, maybe I should have 3 wheels on my bike too? But then it'll be a trike? But not really because they're inline? WTF?

I think you should market this device... It sounds like you have been given a vision of the next great innovation in cycling!

I'd either up your dosage, or get off of the drugs altogether. It very clearly isn't working at your currently prescribed levels.

You know if you get CF residue on your hands from your wheels, you will go mad, right? You need a glove on the other hand too.

I think your dream is telling you that you don't need your lightwieghts and should get one of those things instead. I'll help and dispose of your old wheels for you--no charge
