Pump up Your tires
Advantage of hard narrow tires and mean riding bikes. Do it for your health.

"A new study in mice reveals the beneficial effects of whole-body vibration on inflammation and the microbiome."
I recommend a AL track bike on 20c @ 125 lbs. Under certain conditions the whole frame becomes a speaker.

Nah, 700x28 tires at 70 psi on chipseal. That's the prescription for harmonic vibrations that are an octave of the sun. Or maybe that's chocolate. Gotta ask David "Avocado" Wolfe.

I got you all beat. My first WBR. 23c tires, 110 psi. Light rain. 50 degrees. Light steel fix gear. Metal grate bridge. And naked - see WNB. My shivering was in perfect sync with that grating. Bike was almost un-ride-able.

Mice have a RHR of 600 bpm and run 7 statue miles per day, which is damned impressive for an inch long animal. They also have food-dar and the ability to chew through walls. I don't think we should read too much into this.

They've been out of production for many years, so it might take some patience to find some, especially in 650C diameter.
