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

Congrats on the kid! There is nothing in my life I would trade for the raising kids experience, I loved it.

If you are really lucky like me, ya get one of these later on; my fist grandkid, asleep on me during my first full day of baby sitting

+1 - I enjoy being a parent a little more each day. I was one of those guys that didn't get much out of the "cute baby" phase, but now that my son is older it is priceless. I just want to bottle him up and keep him this age forever.

I did love the "sleeping on me" time I got in the baby phase though.

This does appear to be incontrovertible proof the cycling has not rendered Dr. P impotent.

Get that carbon stroller. Post a review here, and start a thread on Weight Weenies after you replace the bolts with the Ti Upgrade Kit and go to Ceramic Bearings.
