You had to have a resident ID or something like that. Is that true? Quoting: IWant2Believe Nope. That's only near the borders with Germany and Belgium. That is Yes, getting into Europe is much easier than leaving and returning to the states. |

Totally correct. USA is a nation of fat slobs. The entire south & midwest, I've heard, never leaves their homes. Just sit and talk and eat and watch TV and eat and talk and eat and eat and eat. That's why we call them the flyover states. |

The amount of biking facilities in the Twin cities metro are second to none in the U.S. I truly miss that place You practically don't have to ride your bike on the streets because they have separated trails everywhere including grade separated bridges so that you don't have to deal with cars most of the time. The only city that even comes close is Portland. |
