 Am i the only one who's riding?? Image
No, I ride nearly every day year round. The problem is the scenery in your area makes most of us embarrassed to show where we ride. I live in a very nice place with quite roads, giant trees, medium hills, and ocean views everywhere, but it ain't Switzerland - you lucky bastard!

Ditto. Mr. Gib at least has some good scenery to brag about. All we have is in southest Texas are pine and oak trees and some foot hills, and when the skies are clear and the morning light is just right, occasionally looks nice, but it will never compare to the image @kingtom and his swiss compatriats get to partake of on a daily basis. :mrgreen:

And the ocean is the only thing we are missing here.

First half decent weekend day in February. Dry roads but still fairly cold and windy. First outing on TCR with Veloflex Corsa Evo TLR 28s.
