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

Bikes: Yeah, I got a few.

I used to be tied for third on that, back when I was a procrastinatory grad student working part time as a glorified receptionist.

I'm mildly appalled Botto isn't on there anymore.

Yeah, i just didn't know if that fell under an assistantship where you went or not.
At Iowa State, they had some grad students do what you were doing but got some tuition compensation and a stipend for it.

self employed = no one to idly chit chat with or don't want to distract employees
student = bone idle layabout needing a kick up the arse until imminent exams

sort of self employed = family business where I'm in charge of billing and finances.
sort of student = finishing a master's thesis but no classes.

At least "Road Cycling" still leads "Foo", sparing these forums from becoming "The View" of cycling internet culture. Kind of.
