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

Not only that, but take your pills properly so the shakes are at a minimum when you take pictures

This is the heavy rig I have to ride when i am in Burgundy (France).

The bike is 33-35 lbs of steel that's rusting, but take a gander at that garage door, now that's somethin' :-)

looks like the garage door at my in-laws' place in France, only the bikes behind theirs are about 35 years old and 35 pounds each.

That Colnago is a stunner. The graphics are a lot more subdued compared with the ridiculous 'slap the name everywhere' approach they used in recent years. Beautiful.

You're probably sick of seeing her, but she's got lots of different shoes, and each tire color and wheel choice describes her differently.

That's a nice beater...How fun is it racing with bar-ends? You don't see too many Cannondales with those. Nice touch.
