You know, thanks to the way perspectives and vanishing points work, when you look down a long straight road (like, say, the Minute Man Bike Path) it always looks a bit like you're going uphill, or at least it's difficult to judge what the angle is.

Though now that I've learned that you have to regularly reinflate bike tires, it's a lot easier overall.
