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

+1. If your speedometer is in the teens, you're not gonna win. Spend the rim money on training and doping instead and you may have a chance.

Racing without helmets? I thought that in the road forum that made them dumber than dirt/organ doners/Darwin candidates?

I wish I looked that good on the bike.
