SO many of the replies went something like "well what if I have a stroller, or a big awkward suitcase and I have no choice." Bros! Broettes! That's what the word "gratuitous" up there was covering; extenuating circumstances clearly exist!

Geraardsbergen as the riders went up the classic cobbled Muur. We couldn't stay in Geraardsbergen at that point -- hotels were unobtainable -- but Gent had plenty of options and would make for an easy morning ride over to G'bergen thereafter. We were frankly blown away by how much we enjoyed Gent.

Just for those taking notes in the back of the room, peak inflation rate in the Biden presidency was ~9.1% in 2022.
The peaks of the 1970s-into-1980 stagflation crisis hit ~13.5% in 1974 and ~14.5% in mid-1980.

Carl (Buscemi's character) from Fargo agrees! What happened to him was one-remaining-foot last, too
