Not to mention the weight of being soaked with champagne spittle from the half nekkid potbellied viking wielding a giant foam rubber sledge hammer. The horror...

(watching the grand tour in person, not so much actively participating in the "advanced cheering") Stole this clip from Foo :lol: |

Really, gravity is only the description of the effects of Maas on Space. In effect, the effort you feel riding up a hill is caused by time slowing down as you get further from the center of mass. Apparently this hurts. Thank God time pulls us back toward Earths’ “normal” time. Something to think about as you attack your next rise.

Maybe it's me, but I've always equated a person's ability to convince me that they have a correct grasp on knowledge in a particular subject, by their command of linguistic skills, which would include syntax, grammar, capitalization, spelling, and punctuation. I don't see any fault in your spelling, so there's that.
A scientist and a politician can give statements on the same issue. One factual by less flowery, the other flowery but complete bs. |

If the old guys were running alongside marathon runners marathoning uphill ten days into a marathon-a-day marathon, do you think they'd have any more trouble briefly keeping up?

As far as outside temperatures, I like riding when the temps are around the mid 60's to upper 60's. That seems to me the way to stay cool even when the group is pushing the pace.
That and staying in the middle and on the big ring. Would that be an efficient use of my energy? |

The OP's post is to a library, so to speak. An online depository of information. He's not selling anything so there's no spamming. And there's no discussion there, only static information, which one can bring back here to discuss if so desired.
But the vigilance in general is appreciated. |
