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

USA Today article...

Did anybody see the USA Today article a couple days ago about the $22,000 Parlee???

Incredible. I just have a hard time grasping that someone actually has that much EXTRA money to spend on a bicycle. I know there are people that have that kind of money, but its just hard for a guy like me to grasp.

Have a good day,

If I used their ultra high component pricing on my 2004 Colnago it would be worth $6000.00.
