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

Maybe he had to turn his bike upside down to change a busted tube and he was in the process of picking it up and putting it down again to ride.

He is preparing to throw his bike into the back of the pickup truck, which has stopped to pick him up because the man signaled to the driver with the reflection of his enormous crank.

Wondering why an ad for Oregon is set in what looks like southern Venezuela?

Plotting how he is going to burn his talent agency to the ground.

He is hitchhiking, after giving up trying to ride on Oregon roads, what with their 4" bike lanes. That is why he looks so disgusted.

He's fed up with that crap bike and is preparing to toss it over his shoulder into the lake behind him.
