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

I must've slammed into 10-15 large potholes plus several hundred feet of really rough broken pavement at over 40mph today on river road in the palisades in NJ.
When will they actually get around to fixing that mess??

Do those of you who ride that a lot and train there at high speeds use 700x23's? I can't see how a wheel or even a whole bike can stand up to that for more than 20 rides.
