Which BF road cyclist is a Cylon?

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

seems like the ultimate in road cycling awesomeness would be just to go so fast that you literally die, only to be resurrected as an identical team member who then wins the sprint.

you then all get to enjoy the 10$ check


who can top that?

Even when you get resurrected you're still not at 100% mana.

Ever ride the Carolina Cyclone? It's at Carowinds Amusement Park in NC. It was my first rail roller coaster - with 2 loops and 2 corkscrews.

do they allow smoking on the roller-coaster?

better yet, for NC, do they require smoking?

No smoking on the rides. But you could bring your spit cup.

My first roller coaster ride at age 8 was the Blue Streak at Conneaut Lake Park in Ohio. Narrow rickety wood coaster. I was terrified. I thereafter avoided all roller coasters until age 11 when I went to a local amusement park with some neighbor kids, and the girl I was keen on decided we should all go on the Jack Rabbit. I couldn't be seen as a chicken, so I went, and I loved it! Been a fan ever since.

The Blue Streak was faster than a Cylon is all I'm saying.

That looks more like a foursome. Where the only thing missing is me.
