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.

Course, I like answering to Crash when he calls us kids. Even though I am likely old enough to be his Dad, he does grown up stuff compared to most of us.
