I think I need help.

Whenever I get out on the street, whether I'm tired or not, I get sucked into pedaling as if I'm trying to run away from something.

There has been quite a few times that I've headed off on my commute thinking "I'm not feeling all that great today. I'll take it easy and just cruise to work." Somehow I manage to do some of my best times on those days. I can't convince my legs that there are other speeds that a bike can go.

Hi All,

LittleBigMan, I ride the same way . I can be returning from a long ride dying from the heat but I just have to sprint away from the last 3 stoplights from home. I have tired riding at a slow pace but it drives me crazy! I know I should cool down towards the end of the ride but I cant stop.

Ride Safe....Dudley

Hey MC,

I must have missed something? I'm not sure if I should be honored or unsettled after all it's not every day one's nickname makes it into someone else's signature. :confused:

It's all done with smoke and mirrors. See the Happy Birthday Bobsled thread in The Lounge.

Well thanks for the disclaimer! I'll have you know I only seminate information, never disseminate. I ate the shredded remains as per your request. Now what?

Well, saw the thread, still did find it amusing. Oh well! Like I said, I was away for too long and didn't know what was going on.

Eventually you'll pass those remains and it'll make it difficult to sit on a bike seat for a while.
