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

Fixed for accuracy.

BTW, I'd like to thank Al Gore for the AWESOME weather! I'll take alternating days of 60's partial sun and light rain in a NY minute.

It's almost friggin December! Yeah baby!

Yankees win!

I build decks and beach staircases so it's all good around here!

Finally stopped raining this afternoon.

28 on the wet road in the drizzle and then another hour on the trails. I couldn't take another day of not riding.
