Re: Got Figs?
A local restaurant here put fig preserves on a smked ham sandwich. Nice contrast between the meat and the figs.
When I was young my grandfather had a grove of fig trees. I remember getting up early in the morning when it was time to harvest the figs. We had to wear gloves and long sleeves. I especially remember it becuase it was still hot that time of year. We would collect the figs in buckets and bring them to the large kettle (about 100 gallons, like the ones used for cooking down cane syrup). The kettles were placed on a large wood fire and th efigs were cooked down and then into mason jars. I freakin LOVE figs for both the taste and the memories.
Good cyclists are:

They also use the five layers of protection available.
Layer 1: Control your bike
Layer 2: Know and follow the rules of the road
Layer 3: Ride in the smartest lane position
Layer 4: Manage hazards skillfully
Layer 5: Utilize passive protection.
