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

Jersey Question
Does anyone know of a decent custom jersey maker online?

I desperately need a "My other bike has gears" jersey to fend off your dirty looks.

It's not your lack of gears that we're glaring at.

I've heard that non hipsters are also allowed to ride a single speed bike

Hey I've consistently kept at least a couple of pairs of Vans since the original airing of Fast Times at Ridgemont High.
