Dispatches from Mt. Pleasant

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

Yeah that sounds good, but I don't want to limit us to making fun of people in threads that we are wanted in. We need to go to other people's threads where they are actually asking for bike help or advice and make fun of them there.

And we need to call them Fredly more, Fredly.

No sir. Mt. Pleasat is second to Mt Clemens Mi. in that respect. Mt Pleasant has an actual rise. in elevation, Mt Clemens is flat as a billiard table
