Look I'm not saying the heavier rider isn't faster, they definitely are faster, that is talking about velocity, not acceleration. What I'm saying is that the acceleration is the same for both riders, but the heavier rider will reach a greater velocity due to the increase in gravitational force.

Again, I'm talking about acceleration, not velocity.
