The larger guys in general can't get as aero, and people in general hate riding their TT bikes, and this is where i get to level the playing field a bit

oh c'mon, don't back down so easy from a friendly challenge. i'll buy you tacos and a horchata regardless of how you do. I'll invite that no fun teetotalling MDCatV as well


i'm relatively comfortable in that position, but i had to lower the saddle by a bit since that photo. I've never spent extended time on that bike at FTP, and the tendon/ligament going to the back of my left knee started feeling overextended when i did a workout my coach usually prescribe for the road bike. I know it was a saddle height issue b/c i had been trying to duplicate my TT position on my road bike for the EMX ITT and experienced the same issue.
