Be one of those goofy guys with awesome calves that each time he takes a step does a full calf raise...we won't laugh too much.

NO!!! It does work that way in cycling. My quads, Tony Zachery's quads (and calves) are probably much stronger (in the gym) than a Cancellara, Millar, or other TT machines. Gym strength does not translate into sustainable bike speed with the key word being sustainable. Ask Felt Rider if you don't believe...

Maybe, just maybe this will earn me my first REP point...

Ok so thats great news for me. I was thinking that because I have almost no muscle mass in my legs, I wouldn't be a strong rider. Actually to go along with your point, I started to notice a good improvement in my ride speed and distance, after about 3 months of almost everyday riding, without any gym workouts. I did start to drink Endurox R4, and Amino Vital which helped out some.

Thanks,
-Greg

Dymatize Elite Whey Isolate is a great tasting protein powder...about $20 per 2 lb tub.

For Recovery, I'd recommend Myogenix AfterShock or P90X's Results and Recovery Formula. You can buy that through a BeachBody Coach (which I am one, so PM me if interested). No not just trying to sell stuff.
