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

Was that the mod-nazi one? I saw it and tried to **** it but it was "moved" and then a few seconds later it was gone.

Maybe you should have moved to Ireland instead.

There's poisonous snakes here and none of them have ever attacked me while I was climbing a mountain.

coasting: I saw a Bobcat on the MUP last week. She was less dangerous than the dogwalkers and rollerbladers.
