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

you probably started listening in the mid/late 90's so I guess that would put you in the grunge, new metal era? Unless you were into boy bands Iike Back Street Boys or In Sync. Or perhaps the real slim shady.

I work with 20-somethings down at the bike shop. They choose the music. I'll be fine.
