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

Moved my boulders with my son. No need for any VeloVol supervision.

The big one, about 900+ pounds, was a biatch. Made me sweat.

No blame to be had. No one is going to take a course on Tundraland, NY, wild edibles.
