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

Dude. Flying for 5 hours non stop is a long freaking time. 180 knot head wind at one time. I think by the first 1/4 of the flight we ran out of things to talk about.


Anyways, Did phrantic buy that 3T yet?

You'd think with DougRNS, alone in the office today, allegedly, he might post a selfie of himself running the show from the boss's desk.

I have a 5 hour flight at the end of the month. The consolation is the travel ends at a boat dock.
