Is the 41 in decline?

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

Thanks, I feel better already. Maybe I needed to get it off my chest.

I, for one, am appalled at the lack of smarta$$, condescending, irreverent responses I've seen lately. It's like I don't even know who you guys are anymore.
