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 vote we amend the rules to the effect "Men going topless is grounds for disqualification."

Hi,

I finally get to play. I take a lot of photos of people at races but generally I don't get any photos of me.



Last Tuesday night race of last season. I think I was retaining water that day. Oh, and I haven't gained any weight this winter either.

As a commuting roadie who has occasionally worn dress clothes on the race bike, I don't know if this photo should make me feel better or worse.
