Okay. How about "Noone applies equal force completely around their pedal stroke. At best, even the most "efficient" pros are merely unweighting one leg slightly more."
"Scraping the mud off your shoe", "ankling", "pedaling in circles" isn't productive. Focusing on doing those things is a waste of time.
