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

Test Ride
Gonna ride with the inlaws in the morning. 25 mile loop in the country. My father in law offered to let me ride his old bianchi 12 speed. I'm pretty excited about it. It'll be a bit of a joyride but I'm really looking forward to it. It'll be an introduction of sorts to a road bike.
