Cycling Legends Series

Famous quotes containing the words cycling, legends and/or series:

    “I shall not bring an automobile with me. These inventions infest France almost as much as Bloomer cycling costumes, but they make a horrid racket, and are particularly objectionable. So are the Bloomers. Nothing more abominable has ever been invented. Perhaps the automobile tricycles may succeed better, but I abjure all these works of the devil.”
    —Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)

    “Farm boys wild to couple
    With anything with soft-wooded trees
    With mounds of earthmounds
    Of pine straw will keep themselves off
    Animals by legends of their own:”
    —James Dickey (b. 1923)

    “Personality is an unbroken series of successful gestures.”
    —F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
