That's my cousins ex girlfried from the days before mountian bikes.
Ten years ago when I was working with him he was getting into fairings. He put like 50 lbs of stryofoam(spray painted gold for some reason) on his commuter bike and was making me do intervals with a HRM to see how it did(the looks I got). I was in very good shape at the time so the theory was my results would be more consistant. That was after he was towing me around with his pickup on a watersking rope with a spring guage(not precise enough).
Now he has gotten into recumbent fairings.
