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

Colbert beat me to it. My first thought to VG's post was they should increase the flavor first, then worry about the price. But living in NY, one gets spoiled by good pizza.

I have never bought a Papa John's pizza. Always lived near good pizza joints.

Ironically, the worst pizza I've had around here is from a place called New York Pizzeria.

That bike is cool. It's my favorite on BF, but I prefer it with these wheels.
