And there's no showers, so what do ya do.<br>Also, when I lived in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, there was a slogan that the bike geeks there used in the closings to the radio shows... <i>"Two wheels good, four wheels bad. Get a life. Cycle!"</i>Learn it, live it, love it!Liamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14266452271738735650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26432302.post-61724990745320415062009-05-15T23:54:00.000-05:002009-05-15T23:54:00.000-05:00(should've signed that comment above with &quo...(should've signed that comment above with "Zack_Replica" :))Liamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14266452271738735650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26432302.post-31119449530551530742009-05-16T07:58:00.000-05:002009-05-16T07:58:00.000-05:00Great report!
