Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

i hate to bust you lowcel but most of the mighty Appalachians have been downgraded to hill status because of erosion. Maybe wvu should steal western ky university's mascot and become the hilltoppers

Why do you care about your TT position so much if there isn't a flat road to be found in the high mountains of Michigan?
^^^Best post!

Ryan is scared to come to Cali.... home of a hill (er mountain) or two.

so uh.... why are you so pasty white? All the bike racers I know are all tanned from training.

Your arms are too far apart, you are defeating the whole purpose of aerobars.
You're hyper exending your knee.
I cant tell, is that a double or a triple on your bike? There arent even hills where you live, why would you have a triple?

Too much saddle to bar drop.

Believe me, compared to Michigan they are mountains. Besides that, any climb that is six miles long I don't consider it being a "hill".

Gee willikers Hammertime,
You sure set yourself up to be dunked in the sheep dip this time by posting those pictures.
Best download some Village People on your I-Pod and sort this issue out.

Why a TT cycle in the mountains of central Michigan?Give up on climbing?

because he doesn't ride for that team?

not saying he 'plays for the other side', though.


besides, if I'm racing him in a TT, I'd want him to wear as much wind-catching and chafing clothing as he can. i'm sure i'd need all the help i can faced with the power of da man and his droping guads.

there's a software that allows you to do an image search of anyone on the internet, based on their IP address. His real name is Miguel Molina.

I am no aerospace engineer, but I have to think that dragging your foot will slow you down a good bit.
