Thanks for the shout out! I myself am amazed at the fact that we became actual friends via Twitter -- but you are so right, it used to happen much more frequently pre-ads. And plenty of people were still making plenty of money!

I love that you have video game-type music playing on the bike video and I like to think that that’s the soundtrack in your head as you ride. Just your own private little video game -- oops! Can you avoid the dog walkers? You can! 10 points. 🏅

A lot of people have no idea what a merkin is and I get a kick out of telling them to Google it.

My elder son’s mohel gave you a business card with the number of the op he had just performed. Can't recall what number that made Lucien, but his proud boast, this was 1977 mind you, was that in 1948 he'd done prince (now king Charles).

Thanks, Tim! I'm looking at a gravel bike next, but Jersey roads are deadly. Three cycling celebrities have been killed by drivers in Philly and South Jersey in the past few months and I'm not going to be number 4.
