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

We'll see if you can make up for it here shortly when 2020 officially starts.

Heard some of those, then we were zonked out well before 10.

Of course, this is the morning my body decides to let me sleep in, instead of yesterday when I would have had another hour.

New Year’s Day is a big thing in Korean culture, so after this morning’s ride we are heading to NJ to offer wishes for a good year to our elders, and also to receive them from the youngsters.

LesterOfPuppets wished Nuuk a happy new year but not most of the people here.
