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

All TT bikes are born ugly. They can't help it.

I wonder though how much some of the really exotic "aero" shapes actually help, or if it's just looks and marketing and a designer having fun.
