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 been nearly 2 years in the old location.

The new shop will be in a 14,000 sq. foot space more in the heart of downtown. It should be cool.

I'm lobbying for a wooden pump track in the basement, but nobody every listens to me.

Nah, that was on a group ride 3 weeks before the photo above was taken. Gory pics here. I still have a pretty nasty looking scar...

I had a guy turn his head 180 and look at a crash at the same time as veering me into the shoulder about 50m from the finish line this year. He got yelled at. I lost what might have been one of my better placings in the 35+ for 2010, but stayed upright.

Good Advise, and I normally don't, but there was another crash just up and to my right also and I was just trying to figure out who might be coming up on my left.

Crashes in front of me and behind me meant I was finishing alone.

Love the Cat 4 field. Maybe someday I'll upgrade.
