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

You'll see. Oh yes. East Coasters don't go to bed at 20:00 like west coasters do.

You know how it is. Healthy, wealthy, and wise and all that.

Did you put some money on the game?

As always, it's the starting word, though yesterday was four for me as well, which looks like the game they are on about.

Those are my thoughts. I'm desperately trying to get in better condition and drop weight. It's a slow process

thank god! You almost ran out of bikes!

Did you really need to post ELEVENposts in a row? Maybe it's time to find some 'Internet forums for beginners' textbooks at a local library?

If you watch carefully, those 11 posts in a row might be entertaining. Sometimes he even quotes and responds to his own posts.
