if i didnt have my bike in my life,...i just cant think that way. biking is life! the cars when you're whompin having that same feeling other than its not cardio , doesnt demand nearly as much of the heart an dlungs, and the volume isnt enough. you spend an entire day at a pca event, you might get 60minutes of track time in an 8 hour day.
cycling is efficient. 3 hours on the bike 3 hours of effort, 3 hours of fun...unless you flat or ride with frederick who flats a lot.
Amen to that! I call it mental masturbation. I need it to clear my head more than anything.

Oh thanks mooty for torturing me with biking and GT cars (neither of which I can drive/ride right now)! Luckily, I can still have the food.

Ok, Porsches, bikes and now Labs:

Here's Hunter, our 5 month old pup. No kids for us so he takes that spot in our home.
