Yahoo! Anyone living in Europe deserves a good road bike.
Agreed. It's been a silly road to getting one but I think I see the end of the journey. Apparently, getting a bike my size is quite tough. Sure, I'm tall, but I'm not THAT tall.
Beast?
1. any nonhuman animal, especially a large, four-footed mammal...nope, not me
2. the crude animal nature common to humans and the lower animals:
Hunger brought out the beast in Leanimal...maybe
3. a live creature, as distinguished from a plant:
What manner of beast is this?...aren't we all?
4. a cruel, coarse, filthy, or otherwise beast like person...well, that's not very nice!
