Jersey Boys, Part Deux

Mon Dieu!! It is practically Tour de France Eve and I have left you all hanging on the edge of your saddles, waiting for the second half of my review of the 2011 team jerseys. Shame on me!! I have…

Fast Women

Fast Women

“I think the bicycle has done more to emancipate women than anything else in the world. It gives a woman a feeling of freedom and self-reliance. The moment she takes her seat she knows she can’t get into harm unless…
