horse vs. bike

so me and the roomie (betsy) often contemplate who would win if we had a horse vs. bike competition. she rides horses all pretty-like over hurdles and stuff (although i don't think they call them hurdles...) she doesn't do the kentucky-derby type of riding.

anyway, yesterday i decided to look at andreas' website. when i see him and his jersey at the track, i always think: i should check out his cyclingcalifornia.com website, but always forget anytime i am at a computer. but i remembered yesterday, and found a section entitled: "horse vs. bicycle". finally, an answer. bikes rule. i was excited to rub it in betsy's face.

i informed betsy that my bike is better than her horse, and she sent me an email this morning that said: "can your bike do this though?" and attached these two pictures.

amazing. my favorite part is the "oo la la" when the horse enters the peloton.

Wahh, I can't see the pix! But, I like the video. Notice how a couple dudes used the horse as a blocker to bridge. Sweet!
