I saw a need and gave him my Raleigh. I haven't replaced it yet, but it is on the list of things to purchase some day. Of course I probably would have been pushing it up some of those hills.<br /><br />Your weather does sound a wee bit warm. I prefer it when it is 25˚C out there.

On the downhill side I got a little chilly again.<br /><br />I think the logging competitions are collegiate and they compete with other forestry schools.

Horses yield to cars, really? People are left to battle it out with cars? Whoever designed that sign must have been high on something.
