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

Can't resist, this was just breathtaking. I told my son: "you have witnessed history."

Spot on. That was a brilliant goal, a MASSIVE result against that other club in Manchester. Now if he gets one like that against the scousers it will make my season. Text book bicycle kick that.

I literally lost my breath. I looked at my son and said "that's the best goal we've seen all season. It's one of the best we'll ever see." Rooney worked hard all game. One could see it was coming. And I'm a Spurs fan.

Sensational. Looks like Rooney might be on the way to redeeming himself.

That was great. I usually have the games on as background noise, but I happened to be watching live when this happened.
