No, No, No. On vacation in a faraway place, with no access to a bicycle worth riding. Yesterday we took an excursion over the high Atlas and we passed 4 cyclists with full touring gear on the road - there are two passes with the highest at 2260 m and my guess is that it's at least 8000 feet of climbing. I was very impressed and jealous.

These days when I'm far from home and without access to wheels, I get a little exercise by running. I've decided that the running equivalent of a Fred is a jogger, and I am definitely a jogger. (Well, by some people's measure, I'm surely also a Fred.) Anything faster than 9 1/2 minute miles and my legs are sore for days.
