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

This is worse on your wallet though.

109 miles on a hybrid, fully loaded with tools, tube, pump, drinks and food. Not fast, but it was a blast. I love using bike instead of my car, especially for rides like that .
