My stem cap says FSA, for 'full speed ahead' or something like that. Very inspiring.

I should get a St. Erasmus medal for mine.
Because that's what my last race felt like.

"My other ride is your mom," yeah. Most of the school team had them on their bikes a few years back. I don't know exactly who made them originally, but I probably know them. Small world.

I envy you. I wish my work or family would give me an excuse to spend several (spring or summer) months in Colorado, Portland, Belgium, or some other part of the world. I've become jaded and frequently forget how good we have it here.

I may look for some lettering to apply the following: "HTFU," somewhere on the bikes.
Honestly, I just figured out what it means the other day. I think I crossed some sort of threshold at that point...

No Smoking, in English and Japanese...
(the sticker is also reflective!)
My sister has "ride it *****" on her downhill bike... She's pro now so I guess it worked.
damned censor... ***** = another name for a cat
