Well, this is slightly off subject. But it does suggest that there's more than one way to skin a cat: Every time I'm on a hilly century ride or other group event, someone on a mountain bike wearing cut offs and an old tee-shirt goes roaring past peloton of lightweight superbikes. Me for a touring bike, but there are some riders out there that are scary strong. It just doesn't seem to matter what they ride.
