I never made any assertion. Please refer to my original post.

Oh, and happy thanksgiving.

that's a good one.

Gearing on the 930 is 42x15 which is what I've been using since late last year when the 930 got converted.

It's just a good gearing for me, and the bike fits me perfectly, which is a help.

I got two hours of sleep, woke up still drunk, rode my bike 35 miles, am at my third of three Thanksgiving dinners, have drank three bottles of wine, and really want a nap.

Ouch, you must be feeling like you crashed into brick wall.

Today I am "WTF" at Leader 722ts prices on Retrogression's black friday sale, and am wondering if I should buy one in Silver. :guhhh:

More or less... I just got invited to go to another party. When you consider that in the last 36 hours I've slept for two, ridden my bike for four, and drank/partied/been at a concert for the other thirty, and I have to be at work in twelve, I think I'm gonna pass.

FYI, this is pretty much a typical two days off for me. Replace some of the drinking with working and you have my normal work week.

I hope you found time to feed your reptile.

I do wild reptile photography. I don't actually have any. But I did care for my cats, as well as the cats of some friends of mine who are out of town.

Today I has a nice dinner with my brother and girlfriend. Chicken breast wrapped in bacon, refrigerated mashed potatoes, canned green beans, and homemade pumping pie/whipped cream from a friend. Uninstalled/reinstalled my Oury's twice today, think I got it good now. Watched 4 or 5 movies. Good day off of everything.

I love eating food and watching movies with the important people in my life.

That's what I did with my family this turkey day.

ddeadserious 11-24-11 10:31 PM

Whoops. Autocorrect.

Scrodzilla 11-24-11 10:33 PM

20mph, while fast (especially over 48mi) is not unheard of. I've ridden a ****ty kilott w/ fixed 42x14 on my commute (40mi, mostly flat except for the first 2-3miles) and been able to keep up with my roadie pals. The ride I linked is a 17.7avg. I routinely do that ride on my roadbike @ 19+mph averages. In the morning, that route has a steady headwind of 5-12mph. One of the strongest riders in our group rides a custom Ti Seven FG and he breaks the 20mph avg barrier regularly, despite the hills in the beginning and the headwind.

SO, what does this mean? It means you should maybe not be so quick to judge. Yes average speed can vary so much that it's almost useless (everyone should just get power meters amirite?) but that doesn't mean everyone is just blowing smoke up your ass. There are strong riders out there, I promise ;) Also, +1 for not turning this into the 41.

:( + :) = :J

As Jay mentioned -- Today I: spent a lot of money at retro-scrod-gression. Leader 722ts Raw + matching fork for me, Gold 722ts with matching fork for Jay. We're going to be so cute together riding around all matchy matchy. You're hella jelly.
