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

It was kind of boring so I thought I would spice it up a bit.

The footage is from October. I finally got around to downloading from my camera a few nights ago. The sound track is from Friday the 13th (part 1).

That is the sprint. The fitness level in our group is somewhat diverse so in the final sprint large gaps tend to open up. I actually cut out a few gaps to shorten the video.
