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

OK, I might get banned for this, but I just got a private message that simply posted a string of moderator messages that had nothing to do with this thread. I believe that the inmates are now in charge of the asylum.

You know, the bright side to this BF Soap Opera is that it is wildly inflating my already burgeoning, league leading, record setting, untouchable post totals.

It appears the town of Lago has been painted red.

Directly related, my new bar tape was not red.

Me me me me!

How many points do I have? Am I winning? Does this count towards my GC? Do I get a red or yellow jersey?

Never let it be said that Pcad didn't make every effort to keep it Road Cycling related.

Good point...its been discussed via PM. Consider it along the lines of a transition period.

I will never, EVER understand why people can't change the channel or just pass a thread that doesn't interest them. That will always remain unfathomable to me.
