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

I still have her radio station bookmarked. It's very relaxing.

She's pretty tough, when it comes to things like this.

Oddly, she is not interested in participating road cycling.

Ten hour flight, 90 minute layover, eight hour flight tomorrow. I haven't read a Velo News in three months. A small dent.

She told me to thank the BF crowd for the good thoughts.

Surgery tomorrow.

BTW, we've been hanging out at the hospital the last two days watching TDF together. She thinks the Travelers commercial (cat burglar) is "cute".

I'm headed to an undisclosed mountain hideout tomorrow. Sans bicycle, sadly. That's pretty dumb.

The cat burglar spot is my favorite. Wishing your Mrs well.

No, he's gone AWOL.

The fact that there was going to be want is now a failed push to get a deal this weekend + increased rumblings of a debt rating downgrade.

Maybe it won't happen today after all.

Just back home after a 6 hour red eye flight with what seemed to be the entire Hello Kitty fan club. Possibly the most annoying thing I have ever endured.
