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

French manufacturer Plaisante steals a march on the entire cycling industry.
Their new L'empereur wheelset is the lightest wheelset currently available.

Jeff Bezos has vowed to support the American team by developing a high tech whee-set utilizing dark energy so that it actually has a negative mass.
