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

Then when I'm tired, or have things to take care of (cough cough) I'd lose my patience and finish off with the Caesar/Mark Anthony/Brutus (whatever) "thumbs down" picture and be done with it.
