Three of my favourites, nothing at all to do with Audax however.
When man invented the bicycle he reached the peak of his attainments. Here was a machine of precision and balance for the convenience of man. And (unlike subsequent inventions for man's convenience) the more he used it, the fitter his body became. Here, for once, was a product of man's brain that was entirely beneficial to those who used it, and of no harm or irritation to others. Progress should have stopped when man invented the bicycle. ~Elizabeth West, Hovel in the Hills
The bicycle is the most civilized conveyance known to man. Other forms of transport grow daily more nightmarish. Only the bicycle remains pure in heart. ~Iris Murdoch, The Red and the Green
Nothing compares to the simple pleasure of a bike ride. ~John F. Kennedy
My own, said to a guy riding LeJoG supported when he asked me where my kit was. I pointed to my carradice & said: Travel light & ride smelly.
