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

How can one single thread define a forum covering all aspects of road cycling?

They're more than threads; they're states of mind.

That would be this thread. The mere fact that you posed the question qualifies it as such.

They changed that a little while back - it's gone now, though we still likes to wag our vestigial tails now and then.

Please don't use big words in the 41. Causes a google hiccup.

well, it's definitely other. The requirements are excessive hand-wringing and whinging, along with some healthy navel-gazing. These qualities make for the 41iest of threads. We know who starts them.

"we're going to yell at you" Is the one of least 41. It has some valuable information in there. Of course that flies over all the experts in here.

This place was the same before @patentcad.
