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

5. You have huge Guads.
6. Your name is Jan Ullrich.
7. People think you are a preasortic beast.
8. You like pain.
9. You have lots of road rash scars and collecte the tags you get at the hospital.
10. You can see all your ribs.

if you score at least 8/10 your great
5/10-7/10 and your good
2/10-4/10 your a cyclist
1/10 aww man
0/10 and I dont know what you are doinging here.
Eddy 0/10
Bernard 0/10
Fausto 1/10

All 3 could tolerate pain, Eddy's comments after his hour record prove he did not like it.

A good cyclist stays up, not that much road rash. Fausto surely would not count road rash incidents, anything less thatn a broken bone was not worth remembering.

Why would you have scars? If you're good you don't fall off.
