Well my wife thinks Dennis Miller fits best (although not physically). She could see some Capt. Kirk aspects and some Sam Neil (1st Officer in Hunt for Red October).

Today I did my first metric century -- 62.75 miles. I was riding to train for a charity ride in July and then had to make a stop by the LBS to buy a new saddle since I broke a rail in the other. I never thought that I would ride that far and still have enough strength left to move. As it was I finished the ride, ate a 2nd lunch and then cut the grass and still was moving under my own power. It's a big improvement from where I was this time last year.

On the ride to work I go through Silver Spring, North Chevy Chase, Bethesda and Washington DC. Of course of those places only DC has its own government, everything else is part of undifferentiated Montgomery County. They're just names to make real estate ads easier to understand and mail delivery simpler.
