Tan Line Pride ?

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

Hey, I rode with a bag for awhile. Didn't slow me down or stop me from riding. In fact, if not for having to wear the bag for 10 weeks, I probably wouldn't be riding today (I'd be comfortably dead).

I cross-train with swimming, so my tan lines are very minimal.
