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

Nice Site but it doesn't cater to half of the world...Maybe BF ought to start a climbing forum. I bet there are some good climbs out there.

Yea, we need to get some US climbs in there. With my broken leg the only climb I could add is the stairs in my house. Although the grade would be pretty steep!
