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

Looking at that CF seat reminds me of the face you must have made as you tipped over.

Hey pCad, you should be very proud of us. It only took the tweets 7 posts to talk about taking a dump, it took us over 10000 to get into the bathroom.

he should sue the cyclist for being attacked by him.

That guy wasn't a cyclist he was some guy disrupting peoples' commute. The cop wasn't tried for pushing the offender, but for lying to try and frame him.

I try not to. The small race cut jerseys that we have made for our shop (shop logos) fit.. around.. but not length wise. Too short. That's annoying.

These guys sell a decent skinsuit without logos (in case you don't want to look like the next Schleck). I think some nazis may frown on wearing a skinsuit for other than TTs... not that you should let that stop you.

I will remember this after you are flattened by a delivery truck and your widow is wondering why no traffic summonses were issued.

When you're right you're right. Gsteinb thinks he's always right of course. And on occasion, he actually is.

your consistent inability to string two logically coherent posts together is a remarkable testament to your legacy here.
