There are dopers and dopees, but then there are also just plain dopes.

OK I'm fantasizing about the stuff in parentheses above. Though NNS has been teasing me on this thread recently. Did you know she is married? Are you married? I'm not trying to hit on you or anything. I'm just doing a survey. I'll be very popular with the other cycling dorks when I post the results.

Yeah I know.... but I thought it might still be significant. So...with further curiosity - using the Pythagorean Theorem - the first climb is about 3300ft on 10 miles.

So 3300^2 + 52800^2.....take the square root.....you get 10.0195 miles traveled on the hypotenuse [see DMJ it occasionally comes in handy].

Therefore it adds about 100 feet to a 10 mile climb. If the same gradient went throughout the race (on uphills and downhills)....just assuming....that would add about 1000ft to the distance by my calculation.....or about 300 yds assuming some flat portions.

You're right though....assuming my calcs aren't mistaken.....it's not that significant but still....it's something for Bro Deal to think about when he is 300 yards from the finish .

I hope you are not suggesting that if we all ignore him, he'll go away. I think that has been tried before. Now we have new help with weapons, so I just like to get a bit of tongue-poking in before we say good-bye.

BTW - I hope no one wants to access cyclingforums.com in the future from that internet cafe he just used.

That's the intent, however it's only about 4 pages of interesting content, after you've waded through the junk posted by Crankyfeet.

OK, it started innocently like this. I'll use my avatar to change the pic, so its easier to censure later.

I laughed for five minutes straight. This could be because I haven't been getting enough sleep lately, or maybe I'm just in a good mood....

You've upped the ante. I guess it's my turn...
