And to think I pay $149 a month for these drills.
I have been racing bicycles for 20 years. I have never heard of anybody doing sprints from a dead stop in their biggest gear. Going up a steep hill in the biggest gear? Yes.

But if it is a prescribed workout, did you ask Carmichael if you should try it on a tandem**********??


I think they saw you coming....
