  4. Where are you going? Where are you going? When on the bike, do you prefer point-to-point rides? Loops? A GPS and pre-loaded maps? Whatever the road serves up? The trainer with a DVD and power meter?  After watching Bicycle Dreams a second time this week, I can’t get a quote out of my head....
  5. Road trip I like to ride “door-to-door.” Prefer leaving home solo on the bike and finishing at home. Simple. No car to load, no directions to check and no wet garments to shed for the post-ride drive. Zero packing. Just two bottles, a wallet, phone and music. If you have good routes near...
