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

Well on the bright side, you won't be in Cleveland overnight...just a bit south instead.

Well, Billy, threatening my life with deadly lobster is a lot to deal with. If you are sincere, then perhaps I can find it within to forgive and forget.

It is very generous of you, Chip. I can't thank you enough for the hospitality. They are teasing us with being able to board soon.

I'm sorry hon, I momentarily forgot about your affliction.

I will humbly accept my spanking.

Gentlemen, I will be signing off shortly. The plane has arrived at the gate. Thanks a million for the diversion.

Chip, looking forward to meeting another BF member. See you soon.
