I rode 50 miles yesterday. Boston Hub on Wheels. It was nuts. I only walked up a hill once. I was also riding a single speed. It was epically awesome

Do not forget the necessary step, "Biking up hills is exercise", to your logic.

P.S. I love your phrase "older than Stone", do you mind if I borrow it? I literally laughed out loud the first time I encountered it.

I think this is definitely not a crap comic. Very creative frame gag.
Comic frames normally show time sequentially, but this one shows space sequentially, but projects time in the space….
I think I found it so entertaining because of the simplicity - one character, one word and then three blank frames.
Wonderful!

Hills are only fun when you're going down them. Uphill is the tragically necessary evil twin of downhill.

Exercise is good, biking up hills is good, therefore, by deduction, riding up hills is good-by using Transivity (or, an example of Boolean Logic).

There is a specific use for which increasing exercise is definitely a good, (building up leg muscles and stamina), but I don't think any of you are old enough to hear it (it is something of which those of us older than Stone are totally aware.)

Since I ride in Flatland Florida where we call bridges mountains, I am not a climber.

I DO encounter hills when I head back to MO to ride. Having SEEN a hill or two, you could have expanded your comic my showing the rider descending at high speed, only to be faced by the hill in your present comic. That's known, in my world, as a Whooooppeeeeee! Oh, Bleep!! Hill.

Having been raised a good German Lutheran, I never rejoice at a downhill because it is inevitably followed by an uphill, usually accompanied by a left of right hook so you can't see that you have more climbing to do just about the time you reach what you thought was the crest.

My brother who lives in St. Louis LOVES hills. Of course, he was dropped on his head when he was a kid.
