A quote that Joann Klassen found for us

Following is a quote I'd thought I would share with all of you.

JoAnn

"It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle." ~Ernest Hemingway

The Ladies

1. Mary (Ohio), Shelley (Canada), Pam (Calif)
