To get the maximum benifit you need to shave. . . everything.

^^This. And since I will never be really fast, I use total miles ridden for my bragging rights. I have noticed that I tend to go faster when I have my speed display turned off. I gave a Garmin 500, and have several pages that only displaty three fields. More than that my old eyes can't focus on.

Now I ride by feel and like I said, its liberating. Out of air, slow down; to hard a pedal push, go down on gear; to easy of a pedal, go up in gear; late for the train, pickup the pace. They where all good training tools, but unless you race, I see no point. Double O
