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

But still, once you are committed with a crazy plan like that, you have to go through with it... nerve wracking though it might be.

I was thinking of @Velo Vol while I was out riding today. It was kind of chilly, so I wore my jacket. The sound was deafening. I need to look for a smaller jacket.

Let's hope she's alright, she does happen to enjoy a crazy dangerous hobby.

Somebody had to say it.
