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

Yep.
You literally have to put your hands down, off the handlebars.

Thanks God for technological advances.

Looks like SRAM is taking the market..... I used Shimano until I tried SRAM. My Shimano has been collecting dust for two years now.
