I read something last year about what some of the American pro cyclists do in the offseason for crosstraining. On Discovery alone there were 2 or 3 that played bball to stay in shape. The rest were basically runners, with a couple of cross country skiiers.

I just did 14 miles. Exactly half of which was a major hill climb. Mostly in my big ring. The other half was a fast descent. Am I a pussy too?

Mike is not a pussy for only riding 16 miles, he is a pussy in general, especially for stewing over a knot for his boyscout shirt and for playing basketball with girls

You forgot about his hugging and kissing a teddy bear. I do like how he hugged the wheel of a tri guy. Has he no shame?

I wasn't on his wheel. I was three of four lengths back.

Point was I was using him to pace me, but didn't steal wind.

Likely story. Was this on the downhill, if that's what you call them in Texas?

add to the fact that he keeps hinting at SU to outhimself so that he knows for sure if he can be truthful about his feelings towards him. Those two flirt worse than a couple of junior high kids.

One thing I've been doing in the gym this year that I think as really helped me is time on a StairMaster. It's one of those with the revolving staircase and is a pretty good work out. My heart stays in the high 150's to low 160's, it's easy on my knees and it works the same muscles riding a bike does. The downside is it's boring as hell.
