There's a Tylar Farrar video in another link where's he sprinting to 48mph being lead out by a motorcycle on a down grade. No way even Tyler sprints to 48mph on flat ground by himself, no lead out.
But by using the motor, and the grade to get to a high speed, he's training himself to be able to ride at that speed.
Your first post made it sound like just drafting a faster rider will make you physically faster, irrelevant to how much power you're exerting. After reading your response, I don't think that's what you meant.
anyway, let's not give fred and co. a reason to randomly draft off other riders in hopes he'll get faster.
