What do you think? IF you see a 300lbs pound runner, would you venture to guess that his performance would increase if he lost 20-30 pounds? ofcourse! He'd be lighter, have to carry less weight, put less stress in his joints, not have to oxygenate all that extra fat,etc.
Common sense would tell you that a cyclist would see similar benefits.
