More thoughts on clips and straps

opportunity for quite some time. In the meantime, here is
something to think about:

Oftentimes, as I speed around town on my beater I will
race with streetcars or count how many other bicycles I
can pass in an hour. Today I was counting how many other
riders going clipless I passed :-)

I'm thinking about it ... still thinking ... yeah, bring it
down here. Make sure you tell the other slow, clipless
riders that what you are doing. Where are you riding,
Scranton PA, well there you go. No real riders here in
Durango, just posers riding expensive, silly bikes, complete
with clipless pedals.

What's wrong with Scranton, PA? We have our fair share of
cyclists, freds, DUI specials, and wrong way sidewalk kids,
just like every other town.

Well, except for the fact that the mountain bikers don't
like our streets, they're too technical ;-)

The smell from 30,000 lbs of bananas?

I've been down that hill in a car, but never a bike. I've
been up and down the hill on the other side of town on 307
on the bike a few times. It's rather exausting. Makes me
wish we had some bananas in Scranton, what with the leg
cramps that hill causes.

It's funny that nobody ever wrote a song about one of the
half dozen trucks that came down that side and smashed into
Gabe's Diner.

Well, as the weather is great, I'm off to cycle to work.

I'm sorry, you are probably correct. I grew up in Reading
and lived in Binghamton for a while, now that I've lived in
Colorado for 14 years, I realize how lazy and fat NE PA
tends to be. I can say this, I PA dutch!

But there are great athletes in those areas, just not nearly
as many as Durango CO.
