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 are we supposed to pronunce Sarthe?

Is it SARTH? ( like Sarth Vader )
or
Would it be SarThay?

Or maybe SarthEE? (with a long e )

Neither of the LeMond dealers in town have one I wanted to see one in person, but no dice. It's ok, though. I like my bike just fine
