When roasting marshmallows and you run out, do not use Peeps as a replacement. The sugar melts and turns into liquid fire that hardens instantly on your hand and gives you a serious second degree burn.

"A bicycle does get you there and more. And there is always the thin edge of danger to keep you alert and comfortably apprehensive. Dogs become dogs again and snap at your raincoat; potholes become personal. And getting there is all the fun."

BURN, BABY, BURNBy charity, goodness, restraint, and self-control men and woman alike can store up a well-hidden treasure -- a treasure which cannot be given to others and which robbers cannot steal. A wise person should do good. That is the treasure that cannot be lost.

Don't tell a group of experienced mountain bikers that you've taken your road bike up a dirt fire road to the highest peak in the county. They'll assume you can handle more than you're letting on to...even when you tell them you have absolutely NO TECHNICAL DESCENDING SKILLS on a mountain bike.
