Chasing Your Tail
This will be of no practical value to anyone but I am curious. I have a route that includes several small and tight traffic circles usually empty of traffic. They are tight radius and I am trying to figure out the fastest way around.
Not being vested with mathematical prowess I have tried trial and error, going around wide enough that I can pedal continuously, going around tight as possible and not pedaling at all since I have to stand on the outside pedal, and mixing it up by entering tight and going out half way through to pedal a little and going tight again.
Having no computer to help I am going by feel and cannot tell which is faster. Going around multiple times gets even more interesting.
Any ideas?
