Fun fact: The hematologist who discovered Erythropoeitin was from Jefferson and named Dr Erselev.
He lectured us in Medical School on red cell formation etc., which was pretty cool. He was fairly old then (1990's) and I believe he passed away a few years back.

EPO is pretty good. I wonder what the next gen will do.

EPO also promotes blood vessel formation and is probably good for recovery after TBI, stroke, and the like.

Even the gravel races I've been to around here aren't so serious. As one of the race directors describes them, "they're like a mullet. Business up front. Party in the back." There are a dozen, or so, contenders racing hard off the front and the rest of us are out to do our best and have a good time.

@MoAlpha In the 80s, my training tires were 19c. Racing tires were either Clement cotton or Clement seta tubulars . But those 19s pumped to 110 were harsh (I weighed ~142-145). 
80s tech - 19c tires... we thought.

So, @datlas, ever regret not doing a cards fellowship? So many mysteries to solve.

I went for a walk this afternoon, and passed this. Hoping all is well. It looks like it did its job.

On the way home this evening, I saw a guy riding his bike on one of the crushed limestone gravel paths and noticed that he had a folded up tire in one hand... then I saw that his front wheel was bare and that he was riding on his shiny silver rim. Didn't really strike me as a bright idea.

Yeah. A bit of a gut wrench for me when I got home. I don't know nor think much about F1 these days, but he sure was a hero when I did back when he won and crashed and recovered. I don't know what the head injury did, but he sure did overcame it all to be a mark man as a racer, team guy and airline creator.

Have to rip an unsuspecting person a new one at work today. Not looking forward to it.
