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

That goes without saying.

You don't need to do anything weird, just turn on the news--there's plenty of crazy to go around.

As with many deep-thinking orders, membership of The Trust varies over time.

Do you have to regularly ride a bicycle to be part of the braintrust? That requirement would eliminate a lot of suspects.

Hey VV,

Nobody has chosen 0 in your poll. Shocking.

As my wife astutely pointed out, that ride was reminiscent of the Flandis Jack Daniel's ride.

I did the early-morning live coverage. One advantage to being exiled to AZ is that the race is finished before 9am here.
