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 guess I should reciprocate with the quote refusal but I'm quoting anyways.

Has anyone been to the sister car forum run by IB to see if they have this, too?
Oh yeah, I know why it's done this way. It's just one of those modern problems.
