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

I dont think it was specifically removed because it was a scantily dressed female but because of where and how it was done. I mean come on did you see those shoes, no class whatsoever. Shoes just always say so much


anyway both that planet X and paketa are hot

Thanks for the compliments.

As far as the saddle goes, this is my first time trying it (old or new). I only have 40 miles on it; it feels OK so far but not great. I am still playing around a little with the tilt, and I am sure I will get used it a little more with time but so far the jury is still out.

I tried the Turbo for a few hundred miles years back. It hurt. I kept hoping it would get better, but it didn't. Good luck.
