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

I was quoting robot chicken honestly...or was is blue harvest?

The CraB0n is deep with that.
Serously? That makes my joke not as funny.

Thanks a lot jerk. Unfiltered dregs indeed... perhaps at least a pre-filter is in order.

I love the Storm Trooper "take your daughter to work" bits. And no filter boy is doing more revisionism. It was a Lucas flub that has been disguised as scientific idolotry. We must follow the gourd. No, follow the shoe!

2nd slowest guy here. I've been able to do just a hair over 30 trying to beat my old record on a .9 miles stretch next to my house that everyone sprints. I can't keep it that fast for long. Usually end up with a 27.x average over that sprint.
