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

Expensive jeans. Pre-worn by Cowboys in Montana, never washed, so, no chaffing evar!

I lived in NJ for three years and rode central park once just to check the block. A weekend visit is cool but I'm so glad I don't live there.

Yup. I popped this guy on a Scott on Cat Hill. He gave me "the look" just shy of the Third Sister on the West Side Drive at about 88th St~. I paced him all the way around, and he kept looking, lol. When we hit Cat Hill I engaged the guads again to overtake him. He got out of the saddle to no avail. I then gave "the Look," myself. He grabbed his water bottle.

Must of been a recovery ride.

If your Yoga pants are particularly well fitting, than yes, other than that, only two fingers off the bars.

Did your guads ripple so hard that they shook your baby bolts loose? If not, maybe your day will come. Until then, try again.
