The large man I roll past mutters “1 of your legs equals both of mine”.
I bit my tongue, it was more like his belly was 3 times the size of mine.
When it comes down to speed on a bike a lot of it simple math and physics.
Want to go faster, lose weight.
It’s not unique to cycling, it’s the same in running, business, serenity.
They call it dead weight for a reason.
