That's funny. I told Redrhodie that the bumper sticker had been on the car for over a year now and it was just time for this as well.
Great minds...Sarah

Ah yes, I do recall hitting a head wind at the top of an icy hill and getting blown into a backwards slide. Had to hang onto a lamp post and then try again between gusts. But then, I don't bike when the roads are that icy, so it's still a matter of walking any hill I can't spin (and that's a big category in my case). Originally Posted by OakLeaf
