Ahhh cadence...for any given person I believe there's an optimal relationship between how much torque you can sustain at the pedal for a given aerobic effort, and the whole unweighting and "dragging your foot back through mud," thing makes for good souplesse. Seems my optimal cadence for cruising is mid to high 90s.

In the meantime I'm staring at my new carbon wheels that I can't ride yet because the damn valve stems I bought won't seat properly. pfffft.

I am going to look sooooooooooo much faster.
