There is that.
I think you run your mtb bar pretty low. I like it almost saddle level, I can't ride off stuff like he does .I think he's one of the last to use a dropper, too. https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...eabaa202a2.jpg https://i.imgur.com/S8FICVG.jpg |

Pidcock is only 23. He's a phenom and only going to get better. He might even become a good road racer.

That looks to be a fairly small bike. I'd probably keep hitting my knees on the bars.

Here is one of my favorite local climbs. It's pretty tough.
https://www.strava.com/segments/580243 p.s. if you follow the grade, it does have some pitches of 15-20% the last quarter mile. Ouchie! https://www.strava.com/activities/75...035602/sharing This is my favorite around here: https://strava.app.link/sHz8bKTKTsb Its a pain to get to the good hills, like 20-25 miles in most cases |

You know they make bikes in different sizes, right? Nino is a fairly small guy (5'-8")
Crap! I am small. :cry: Still, I was center on my under 5’7” basketball team. |

Extremely strong performance by NS from start to finish, and a tight battle deep into the last lap. Great race.

Crap! I am small. :cry: Still, I was center on my under 5’7” basketball team. In football, our first string quarterback was about 5'7". When they put in the 6' tall second string QB, everybody knew we were going to pass, because we had to have a QB who could see over the linemen. So they'd blitz, but the joke was on them because out 6' QB was also one of our sprinters in track and he'd generally gain yardage running with the ball to escape the blitz. |

The little guy wasn't a sprinter. He ran the mile and the 880. The big guy was on the Quarter Mile and Mile Relay teams, which mattered more to our track coach.

The nightshades may be a thing - slept to the alarm two of the three nights since cutting them out. I thin most of you know how rare that is; that might happen twice in a year normally.
