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

Of course you will start a thread about them, so we can all rue our lack of such psimet awesomeness.

Are you clenching a fist tightly and shaking it over you head as you say this? or is it all in my head?

wow. 10,000 this is a big moment for me. I missed all the special numbers in this and the foo thread.

I remember back when this was in Foo (ask pcad anything). i wan't quite an original. I literally spent a week at work (at least 25 working hours) reading hundreds of pages of posts to get up to speed then started posting. If any new people are out there My only suggestion is to go to the beginning of this thread and read the whole thing. It willl be enlightening.
