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

I'll be listening to Ravi Shankar sitar ragas now when I'm riding. The Cycling Zen I shall achieve thereby is incalculable.











You are all so totally EFFED.

Just a lurker, but I've got to say: this Slothlike shmoe taking sloppy swings at Pcad is like watching Henry Hawk try to eat Foghorn Leghorn. Not only are they in different internet-dickery weight classes, but the bantam can't figure out why everyone is laughing, and everyone else can't believe he's not.

Nothing wrong with Escher himself, just every other college kid seems to discover him making "Drawing Hands" played out.

Well OK then.

Look, if you must, ask Mommy to buy you a digital camera (you can get them for $99 now) and get us some pictures of these alleged vaporbikes you keep posting stock photos of.

Of course you know, this means I must change my avatar. I guess I can handle being called a Kiss Ass. But cerebral? I will have none of that.

As soon as slothlike posts a picture or two of his stable of iron and carbon, I will snag one of those for my avatar.
