Biking Redux - morning chuckle for me

Biking Redux

Cox News Service reporter Ken Herman spoke to Daryn Kagan on CNN yesterday about the bike ride he and a handful of other reporters took with the president two weekends ago.<br><br>

Said Herman: "The president rides his bike like he runs his foreign policy. Once the course is charted, there's no turning back, no second-guessing, no waiting for the less committed. He gets out there and he gets his heart rate pumping and it's a serious activity."

I had to chuckle over this --- "The president rides his bike like he runs his foreign policy" -- you mean like falling off his bike and crashing into people? If so then I agree he makes foreign policy as easy a -- well, as easy as falling off a bike

1. Someone in the Bicycling Group forum said
that * rides a 17-mile course in two hours. That's only 8.5mph. I must weigh over twice what * does, and yet I can ride for over an hour almost 2mph faster than him?? It made my day. And the best part is I almost never fall off the damn thing. :rofl:
