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

In skiing that's a Yard Sale and it always involves a crash.

You should have posted abandoned bike remains and gear being run over by vehicles on the road. That would have been more realistic.

So she just needed to find a news site's picture of the most recent car vs. bike tragedy and post that instead.

Hopefully the shorts are double thick. I don't think heaven would approve of see-through shorts.
