#13 As much as I enjoy the Kerry mockery (kerimakeri? is that some Japanese thing?), I give him props for being a 71 year old dude out there biking. Pedal on, Jawn. Pedal on, Harf.

#14 I agree SteveS. Either lane, faster, and at dusk please.

#15 I'm a guessing Jawn would be described as this by actual cyclists.
All the gear,
No idea!

#16 The purple, a portable throne!
A curb by the Rhone, and a groan:
"O Lordy, have mercy;
This unlucky jersey
Has cost me the damned Maillot Jaune!"

#17 "Macadam, meet ~~Madam~~ Monsieur!
I fear you shall have to confer."
The treacherous wedgie,
So famously tetchy,
Sez, "Hey, dumb-ass, get a chauffeur."

Meh.

#19 All the Kerry bashing aside, let's hope he has a quick recovery.

As bad as he is, there are a lot worse....Harf!

#20 Never had any interest in a sport that lowers sperm count and encourages one to shave one's legs. Not surprised at all that John Kerry embraces it.

#21 Little known fact: voted "Most likely to break his leg bicycling in France" while in high school.
