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
Nothing compares to the simple pleasure of a bike ride. ~John F. Kennedy
Cycle tracks will abound in Utopia. ~H.G. Wells
In reading these quotes, Lance was right. It is not about the bike.
(To respond to JD. Yes, JD, that little green hill does not do the 4200' of climbing on Mt. Hamilton justice.)
