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

Generation Gap

I saw this article today:

https://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090629/...neration_gap_4

and I recalled watching "A Sunday in Hell" (a documentary about the 1976 P-R race)with my 17 year old son recently. His first reaction was "What happened to their helmets?"
