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

Mr. Awesome rides a Look

Anybody watch Chuck tonight? Mr. Awesome was riding a Look. I thought that was funny/cool. He actually looks like he rides (and not like a total Fred, although the jersey was a bit much).

some screenshots of the scene:

Look frames seem to get a lot of TV time. Or more so than any other brand.

Not credible. Awesome would be a triathlete.

That's not by accident.

Shemar Moore also apparently rides a LOOK, with that ultimate fashion statement: mismatched arm warmers and tri jersey:

What happens to these bikes? Is there some LA warehouse full of unridden $5K road bikes? Is so, where is it located and how heavy is the security?
