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

Ford Mondeo is the same car as a Jaguar X-Type. Ordinarily I dont mind too much that one brand car is the same as another brand, but on this case, the X-Type looks so similar to a Mondeo it hurts. Jaguar XF is attractive.

Ferrari make, sorry, market, mountain bikes. I was on their site just today (revamped and rather tasty). If anything, I would have thought it's better for them to sell road racing bikes.

the salesman where i went made 30 copies of the form and had all his employees fill them out. said he was going to try and use them as gifts when people would buy a cadillac. i thought that was a great idea.

Yeah, defrauding your employer is always a great idea.

Dont worry about getting that jersey so much. If its anything like other GM products delivery will be waaaayyy late, it will have 2 different sized arm holes, the colors will fade after the 2nd washing and the seams will pull out soon after that. You'll end up wishing you hadn't wasted your time going into the dealership to fill out the form.

If only British Leyland had made bike jerseys back in the 70's/80's....

still waiting.. Im pretty sure it was 8-12 weeks from the end of the program.. not sure how hard it is to ship stuff out.. maybe they wanted to wait to see how many they got in before making the jerseys..

so hopefully by the new year we will see the first ones rolling out to us.

It's not that they're idiots that bothers me--it's that they assume I'm an idiot as well.

In GM employee/franchise owners eyes you are an idiot. After having associated with people who worked there for many years you can pick them out of a crowd by how high they hold their nose up in the air and how condescending they are. The only people who are worse are the current batch of Toyota dealships owners and Corporate Toyota people.

+1 on the Toyota dealer attitude.

Well, GM, who's the idiot now? At least I'm solvent (for the moment)--and you ****ers are working for me, now.
