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

As long as I'm shaving my own face, I'm just not gonna shave my own face.

I commend your decision not to shave.

Hmmm, you could substitute The Road Forum for Modern Life and it would fit just nicely.

...I today ordered four sets of Panaracer Paselas in the 27" (630 iso) size, both 1 1/4 and 1/1/8 flavors, because they are on sale for under 20 bucks per tyre now through Labor Day at Bike Tires Direct. Most of you will probably laugh at someone ordering four sets of 27" bicycle tyres. Go ahead, yuck it up. #rollin '
