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

BF is the best place to discuss technique.
Just post how you do something and you will get 100 posts telling you how stupid you are for doing it that way

Not a web site, but the book "Serious Cycling" has been great for me.

It's not a web page, but Training For Cycling, by Davis Phinney & Connie Carpenter has the best section I've ever found on the subject. It's kind of old, but there's lots of good stuff... even some Bob Roll anecdotes.

Your local library may have a copy if you just want to look it over (that's where I discovered it).
