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

Skunk works

Me and the crumpton almost taken out by 5 skunks. I was riding along and a family of skunks came out of bushes about 25 feet in front of me. I hit both brakes and they instantly all turned tails toward me. Quick thinking made me realize that stopping would be bad so i rode through them. I avoided the spray but was scared s..tless. Funny now but I think if I would of been hit not so much.
