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

Cold R' Not







I'm tired of the white stuff.
On August 29th I'll be wishing for it.

You're going to be wishing for snow on August 29th********** Are you crazy???? I could happily go an entire year, or more, without seeing a single flake of snow.



BTW - it looks like there's more snow where I live than where you live!

On that particular day I will be. I'll be in Texas and 50-60 degrees warmer than I should be.

I don't know, but in the head on shot, your saddle looks like it's looking at me.

I've never seen a bike with such perfect accents. You managed to match your derailleur hanger to not only your frame, but also your headset. Absolutely gorgeous bike.

I love the change in season and would go crazy if it stayed the same year-round cough*socal*cough. Ski in winter, bike in summer. Perfect.

All of Eriksen's colors match King Headset Colors so you can be fashion forward throughout.
