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

I just hope it ends up beer-related.

Wow, that was really...I want my 30 seconds back.

I don't know about you, but I was patiently waiting for the word "bike" to kick in. There was nothing.

I wonder if Robin Williams shaves his legs? Maybe he carries a gun during his rides in spandex that has a thick enough chamois to absorb leakage during rides on Soul "aero" wheels that has not gone through wind tunnel testing.

Her Wiki-stub of sorts says....:

"Hobbies

Williams has been quoted as saying she's played "every single sport on the face of the planet."[4] She regularly visits an indoor climbing gym in her hometown of San Francisco. Williams is also a dedicated video game player and Halo 3 fan and stated that Wikipedia is one of the websites she visits frequently.[5]"

If she likes to get blind drunk and wake up on strange floors - I'm in love.
