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

strangest place you have ever seen a roadie riding

Ive seen roadies riding on roads that I would consider crazy to ride on like heavily trafficked 2 lane highways etc. but what I saw today takes the cake. Driving over to milwaukee this morning from madison I look over at the opposite side of I-94 and what do I see... an old guy in a red helmet on a red roadbike pedaling down the breakdown lane on the interstate. Gotta say that guy must have balls the size of cantaloupes to be riding there, either that or no common sense what-so-ever.

Illiterate or no regard for the law.
