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

The worst for me is when I pass the TIT riders and they yell "Rider back" right into my ear. I'm in the road and they're off to the side. The only reason they'd need to do that is if one of them was going to fly into the road without looking back. If that's even possible then maybe they should focus on that issue and not deafen those of us who know what we're doing. Just a thought.
