Come ride with me in Boulder, 40 mph is a daily thing, 50 is tougher but happens quite a bit.

OK, I am too lazy to look through the whole thread. Can someone post that photo of the Wayans brothers with "Dayum!" written on it? I saw it a year or so ago in the tech forums but I think the thread was cleaned out. Thanks.

Relaxing in the hot tub last night with my Son and he asks,
"Dad, why do we like boobs so much?"

"Cuz we don't have them" I say.

"Dad, I think if I was a girl I would be play'n with them alot."

"Yup, me too buddy, me too."

Aghh...those precious Father-Son talks...

It did! He actually likes to see how far he can take it before I tell him that he is treading on dangerous topics! Actually, the next thing he said was

"Dad, I'm glad I'm a guy... I like having a penis and glad I don't have a vagina."

"Well, thats good because your pretty much stuck with it now tell me about Football camp..."

Down how steep a grade?
Like i said.
The original post suggested sprints up to 50 or 60 mph.
In my sprinting days I could hit the mid 30's but not for very long. No one else could either. Not on level ground. Not without drafting behind a semi.

In 1980 I worked on a shimano recumbent that was to be entered in the human powered races. I built custom wheels for it.
It was very light, very small frontal area, was high tech for the day and was full aero. Lightweight teardrop style shell.
I might have been able to hit 50 or maybe 60 in it on level ground but that would still be a stretch.

That's the one, I remembered it wrong. Thanks.

Now I am off to watch the soccer game, or the fans at the soccer game, after seeing these recent posts.
