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

Per Mr. Smith about the $10,000 mark:
“After that,” he says, laughing. “You’re really starting to pay a lot of money for marginal gains.”

So at $10K is where that starts?
I'm poor.

"Me struggling up Alpe d’Huez in France on a Cervélo R5 is perhaps the greatest disparity between talent and technology since Donald Trump met Twitter."

That's funny
