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

By the way, from what I skimmed the word "plunge" is used a lot.

I'm going to stop now.

Anyway, steer clear of that place. Whatever Fred stupidity one may encounter over here is really far less aggravating than the rampant arrogance and hubris of the Road Nazi boys. Ooofaaaa.
Wow.

Super cool. but not his best work. You should have been around when he would have conversations with his " other" selves. Those were wow worthy.

Peroxide is bad, it kills healthy tissue. use anti biotic ointment. do a search this has been covered I can remember all the details. it prolongs recovery. A bunch of negative stuff.

Now that I reread this, no its not ok. Mzeffex's granny writes ponro and you are wondering about the 33?
Well, I mean yeah, ok fine, but I think this new information should at least get an honorable mention.

Whatever. I find it odd that people announce their ride data, but don't include av speed. I find it useful.
