Well, that's good.
BTW, what does ATM mean? I just can not keep up with all of these acronyms...

what ever happened to Automatic Teller Machine?
two hours to go, and I'm on the plane to Seattle to catch the one to the Yucatan for two weeks or tropical getaway with my sweetie. I'll try and rent a bike somewhere along the way so I can post some on topic RR content when I get back.

Context is everything. I imagine he *really* doesn't need frontwheel traction on an ATM.

What are the correct settings for the handlebars and seat, (as in how much higher the handlebars should be above the seat in relation to body length and arm length.)
The reason i'm asking is that I seem to be leaning too far forward and putting a lot of strain on my wrists, (which can hurt a lot after long haul rides.)

Now that is one hell of a cyclist. What this article didn't mention ( or I missed it ) was that he is actually having a go at the hour record again at this very moment. He started his trial runs a couple of weeks ago and is aiming for a serious attempt in the middle of june or something. Nobody really believes he's going to be succesful at the age he is. I think around 38. However nobody believed in him the first time around either.

The idea behind that forward leaning stance is to improve front wheel traction. It helps prevent washouts. Try a hybrid. They're more
upright

I don't need frontwheel traction atm. Setup is perfect now.
Well, that's good.
