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

I remember my roommate always trying to pick up women by talking about being a cyclist and having shaved legs. Never seemed to bring any girls home.
Maybe if he volunteered to shave their legs.
