    You might be able to stick some tender fantasies in your shoes.

    I hate those public storage places. I didn’t have the money to get my stuff out of storage and they kept everything. I had some stuff in my “space” with a lot of irreplaceable memories.

    …my brother…

    …an advid bicyclist…

    …says the Darkside is stronger…

    ..that he pedals his bicycle with more force when he’s angry and pi-ssed off…

    …I correct him…saying…

    ..it depends on how you use it…

    …you are supposed to be angry at injustices…

    …it’s how you use it that counts…

    It was more about the weight of the tender fantasies, really. An ounce here, a gram there . . . it all adds up. He only carried them for training purposes.

    I blame the lack of tender fantasy storage space on those skinny bicycle seats. After a 100-kilometer ride, your fantasy is more than tender!

    Because by habit he stored them in his lumbar vertebrae. And now…that area of his body was like war-torn Dresden.

    Tour de Tender Fantasy never had the viewership of the Tour de France, but the prizes were better and the chicks seemed to dig it.

    Going to echo some excellent advice Teresa has on her blog: sign up for Maria Popova’s simply superior twice-weekly emails. Any contributions to Maria’s livelihood are completely voluntary. (Her admirable output shows a lot of work and a lovely way with words.)

    ’Iis true. Those tight spandex biker shorts can have that constricting effect on your “tender fantasies”….

    (I for my part only rode a full-sized classic Schwinn back in the day, wearing normal garb.)
