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

Dude's a troll. Who knows why he says the things he does. There certainly isn't much reason to believe anything he says.

You, my friend, have obviously never been to San Francisco then. The Marin is constantly windy with a never ending supply of climbing.

Obviously. It goes without saying. But, (it's been said before) you'd still be too fat for this sport.

i don't have a giant head. medium size helmet fits me the best at 5'10". that's an optical illusion due to the angle.

Not doing clipless, helmet, lycra just means your avoiding three of the most overrated things in cycling.
