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

Would one of y'all mind downloading the members list and categorizing each member for me. I like to know a bit about the people I correspond with.

I suppose most pointless things are entertaining, aren't they? Like watching people try to sing, or hippos.

That's funny, because I know far more about you than I really want to know.

Really it's because nobody likes you. How do I know? Because nobody likes me. I recognize the symptoms.

She was holding near 30mph into a VERY heavy head wind (20-25mph).
I forgot what this thread is about, but, I sometimes see Karen Smyers around and other Team Psycho riders.
