I worry about him, too. I'm glad *he's* willing to get out there. It seems like such a constrained life for them.Quote:

But nothing compared to when .... uhm, no politics now, I'm not saying what socks you should wear ;) if he wins.Quote:

Bet some TE'ers could form a nice pelaton 'round him. No matter which way you plan to vote it'd be a historic chance to ride with him "here, let me adjust the fit" :cool:
Nice choice of bike!! Doesn't say exclusive like Kerry riding a Serrota in lycra and clipless :o , not dorky like Dubya riding with the tooth protector :confused: ;) Nice bike, not too nice, and way to go for the womens vote with the Burley. :D
I had a Bugger for SKnot when he was a little kiddo. That was the actual model name of the trailer. Printed on it and everything. I figured that who-ever named it was NOT from the British Commonwealth nor a fan of Monty Python. ;)Quote:

i bet that guy in the gold car is Secret Service.
looks like a Trek 7000 actually!!
I think it's hilarious how you guys deconstructed his fit...:p
See, he started really young with the handelbars-higher-than-the-seat, pedal-in-the-arch-of-the-foot habits! :cool: :DQuote:

Do you think they're like: "cool- we get to go ______", or
"crap- we have to protect so and so while they're out being foolish doing ____."
.... like riding a Segway :rolleyes:Quote:
