I'm working towards the 98-ish area, that's for sure. Tomorrow, the drill is to do 3x10 Zone 3 at over 110. I find it brutal. But, my 4 hour Z2 ride was 94 average, so it's getting there.

Celebrity is considered one of the best. I did Norweigan and would be hard pressed to find anything to complain about. And I'm a critical SOB.

i agree completely, but peta types have their panties in a bunch and expect people to just stuff them in a bag and let them loose in jersey
theres 10 and 12 pointers along one of the main trails i ride and commute along to get to work, and a friend of mine is a bowhunter who lives 1/4 mile from there.
i keep trying to get him out there, but hes worried about fines and jailtime and trivial details...

But actually, geese don't run into your car. And they don't eat up your ornamentals and veggies either. And they don't spread lyme-disease carrying deer ticks. So there's that.

The trike for the dog has 140 cranks ( I measured them). I can get it to 160 rpm any time. I've hit 200 rpm once and 195 a few times. Also important is that sitting up straight on the seat keeps your butt down on the saddle. Also a heavy bike stays still better at high rpm. And, a trike gives you a heavy and solid non tipping platform. That helps too. Low gearing means the traveling speed is low, which means the bike/trike does not bounce around as much.
