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

My wife gave me crap for not doing it last year, so it looks like I'm going to have to.

Might go the full idiot and do it on a 29er singlespeed. I need some motivation.

Adobe ****s me because of that, because its always pops up behind the browser when u open acrobat reader in a browser, then the browser ****s itself. *im off to write some hate mail*
