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

Which would be more pointless? Which would beat the dead horse more? Which would be more annoying? How long will it be before I post that S2 picture again?

Discuss.

I think we need more Giant threads.

Or maybe Merckx threads....

Soul S4.0 threads?
