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’m more concerned about my bike disappearing while I ride. What do I do if that happens?

Well, it's about this long . . . And about that wide . . . And it's about this country, about which we're singing about.

I feel alert and alive. I'm not really a fan of misfit related discomfort.

She takes the taxi to the good hotel
Bon Marché, as far as she can tell.
She drinks the Zombie from the coco shell,
She feels alright, she get it on tonight...

Rene Descartes is sitting in a cafe. The waiter comes up and says, "M. Descartes, would you like another coffee?"

Descartes says, "I think not." and disappears.

While you guys were busy lamenting old threads, I spent the day actually preparing for the zombies. Built bikes for the apocalypse - one for me and one for the wife.

No hesitation.
