No big scenery. Just plain roads around my hometown but it is where I do my riding. Pics from late summer/autumn.

Blasphemy or no, descending is my favorite part of cycling. I refuse to climb an awesome hill unless I get to reward myself with descending it afterward.

Truer words could not have been spoken. It is all about the climb. The descent is an after thought. The climb is the reason for being on the bike.
