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

The googles say it's called "peripheral neuropathy". Whatever. No permanent damage, apparently.

Don’t think the cloud has a say in the matter.

Probably for the best, you don't want all that chemtrail juice weighing you down.
