Some cyclists and arrogance

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

In real life, I've encountered friendly cyclists or neutral ones that don't really care. But on this forum, interacting with strangers, boy oh boy, the level of snooty snarky comments is unmatched by anything else. High school girls can take notes from folks on here.

Mowing the lawn is Not a hobby.
I read that as if Ice Cube were rapping it... it sounded awesome.

Bikes: An old orange one for dirt, and for the other stuff: a white one, a kinda mint green one, and a black one.
