I didn't think I suggested I was ignoring any of it. It is good, I believe it, but what I have seen does not deal with riders controlling their bikes from external forces causing a change in momentum. Things like road variations (bumps), air turbulence as well as response to race conditions, such as attacks cause the rider to have to correct - accelerate even if its just from a minor road bump. I want to see that data on the work dealing with corrections and non perfect straight line riding with constant air flow. I have to admit I have not looked much because I think it isn't there. If you have links to such data or even discussion I will read them.
