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

Surely you all can't sit and watch these meaningless baseball games.

I'd rather watch sailing, and I have no idea what the rules are.

Oh yes I can and will. Still too hot to go outside.

The book of sailing rules is only about 150 pages, and there are pictures.

My wife says that I’m a whiner.

Personally,I’m still miffed.
