What are the differences in the way the following types of horses piss: Russian Race horse, American thoroughbred, Clydesdale, dray horse, and Quarter Horse? Discuss.

These days I'm usually a PITA to the faster groups which is why I'm happy when others are there who are slower than I am.

I wouldn't necessarily say that I'm a wuss, but yeah - my concern over crashing centers more on pain, suffering and the financial burden of medical treatment rather than concern over the cost of the bike, which would be rather minor, compared to the rest, IMO.

Yes and saddle time seems to make it worse.

I AM a wuss. When I rode with PenVelo, as part of being a club member you had to help out with the Burlingame Criterium, which was a downtown crit. You help set up the barriers, then serve as marshalls on the course, then tear down. The speed and tight pack dynamics, and occasional crashes put me off wanting to race IRL. But I do like Zwift racing, because there's the competition, and tactics, but no crashes.

I had started to have the usual age and Y chromosome-related issues, but when my doc put me on HCTZ for hypertension, they seem to have gone away and stayed away. So far.
