Well, not really. Perhaps a few stale endorphins make you think the ride was great. A real bro kicker. But lets face it, cycling sucks.
The real reasons to ride? Cafes, banter and a few social beers.
Hence wheelsucking. One of the techniques recruited in getting to the cafe with as little effort as possible. (see also amtrak, bosch etc)
As Scotty says, “use your arm hair to sense the least wind resistance”…among other things.
Studies suggest that the thrill of the perfect cafe stop can mask the pain of the last 90 minutes ..
Meanwhile…a random casual cyclist pretends to actual enjoy cycling. I think we know what’s really goin on here…
One reply on “For the love of cycling…”
Oh how I miss these Saturday rides.
