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

It's hard to know which dog it was when you have 3.

Curious what the posting time to hours riding ratio is on the Addiction thread.

Can't be any worse than the hours lost gaming.

Getting stung by a bee sucks. My daughter was on a roller coaster with me a few years back. One of the ones that has the bars that come down over your shoulders and kind of pins you in. A bee went up her shorts right before the ride started and stung her on the thigh. Talk about feeling sick. Nothing either of us could do, just had to finish the ride.

That's just too bad. Would have made for a good parody thread.

I was descending really fast with my jersey open and the stupid bee flew in there. Seconds later, yeeouch! I slapped against it and kept going. At the next stop I unzipped to let the dead bee out. When it happened I still had some 15 miles to go with that annoying burn on my chest. It still hurts. F'ing bee.

Funny you should mention bee keepers outfit. Less than a mile from my house I passed a guy in full bee keepers outfit doing something next to his truck. I don't believe I've ever seen anyone wearing a bee keepers outfit along a road my entire life. The day I get stung by a bee is the day I see one! Spooky.

Story is that it was during a sprint (up ahead), and the guy who appeared out of nowhere was the leadout falling back.

Anyone else have something sore to complain about? Bike related preferably, but not necessary.
