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

It's a ride report, so there's lots of scenery and bikes, and more scenery, and meals, and gear. Plenty of everything for everyone.

Of course, if I was Brandy, I'd charge $ for access.

That view off his deck is awsome but the payment is rough weather up there.
Is there a Block Watch in his neighborhood to make sure Ol,Graybeard makes it home every night?

You could leave your $15K Cervelo with Lews leaning against your garage door in June, go to Europe, and when you got back in September it would still be there. There's no crime here. The biggest hazard is T-boning a deer on your bicycle. Or stumbling into a pissed off mama bear.

He was asking about the neighborhood watch for your sake, not your bike. He was afraid you'd get lost in your own neighborhood and walk off a cliff or something.

Mets fans are all whiners. And if you watched the Mets the past two years, you know why.

The Mets bullpen sucks so bad it's off the friggin hinges. I'm done. F'em. They don't deserve to make the post season.

Pedro gave up five runs. Did he start the game out of the pen?

This is worth a thought.

Brandy was active on this thread until that photo popped up. There are already too few women who can tolerate the nonsense in the Road forum without us scaring the last ones off.

Thanks for having my back banerjek, I do appreciate it. I was getting ready to leave work when that was posted, then had to come home and make yummy chicken quesadillas and I'm just now getting back to BF.

I'm pretty hard to offend and I have a thick skin. Believe me...I wouldn't post or let George post anything (publically) in our flickr account that I minded if anyone saw. That's why all of the NSFW pics are private.

I'm not going anywhere...you're all stuck with me.

If you think this is flat, you should spend some time in Southern Florida.

It may not be mountainous here, but it is hilly.

Don't be F-ing up my Mt. Doom thread.

Lived in South Florida from '76-'80 and in CT from '80-'95. You couldn't keep me in jail in FL, and I have ridden your area. I used to think it was hilly

BTW this thread is already FUBAR

Are you joking? My husband and I are raising 3 teenagers. This "nonsense" is entertainment, and not much scares me anymore

That's yesterday. They won the game tonight in rather nail-biting fashion.

Smeagol can climb my precious. That nasty Gary is a sprinter. We don't like sprinters precious. No.
