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

Gary easily outsplints the rest of the four man BREAKaway.

Taking prescription opiates after a major accident involving broken bones does not constitute 'doping' by the way, unless you're L. Armstrong, and you're in France.

I wonder if Advil would fail doping controls.

I'm sorry, but that Radio Shack name is Utter Fail for an electronics store in 2010. Astonishingly enough, the company is actually doing pretty well lately.

Hey, good for them.

OK, so we're even. I'll never win a bike race, and your grammar will always suck. The former will never cost me any real money, but the latter could hamstring your professional career should you actually endeavor to have one.

Wait. I don't think we're even.

Actually, I think the only place they do doping controls at amateur races is at the nationals right? How about at major regional races like Battenkill or the major regional stage races like Killington (or whatever they call it these days)?

At any rate, if you want to pop a Percoset Gary, I Pardon you. I was ready to cry to Mommy over this stupid mouth pain an hour again. Like I said, Advil + Percoset finally calmed it down. But that was bad for a while there.

That rib pain has to really be nasty. Don't laugh, cough, breathe, yawn, stretch, roll over in bed or reach for anything and you'll be fine.

Gary knows something about this topic as a serious national caliber Master's racer, he's the clean guy going up against some competitors who may be doping. Hey, if doping is really prevalent at the Master's level, it's kind of beyond the budget of amateur race promoters to provide controls for.

Gary is a pain in my ass, but he is the salt of the earth.

I figure if I actually tell you what an insufferable teenage pinhead you are, you'll commit suicide, it will make the cover of People, and I'll never live it down. Now go to your room and change your BF User Name back to Razor or no Prom for you.

The topic was my hot new Scott Addict, and by inference our collective addiction to this idiot sport.

Let's get this back on track. I can't help you, I can't ride a bicycle until at least Sunday. Doctor's orders.

What the heck is a killer strawberry?

Either I'm really getting old and out of touch, or there is some dumb stuff out there.
