How to ride a bicycle fast
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/06/19/f.../19fitness.html Unfortunately, they didn't ask him about the curve velocity in the velodrome... I enjoyed this epilogue the most: An earlier version of this article misstated a technique for negotiating downhill curves. The rider's inside pedal should be up, not down. The article also referred incorrectly to cadence. It is the rotation speed of the pedal cranks, not the wheels. |

Actually I'm impressed by the corrections. Not many writers bother to make corrections, and fewer still list the errata. Maybe CVV complained. -Paul |

I did not read the article the first time the URL was posted, but now I will immediately click on it, register, and read the revised entirely correct article. -- Michael Press |
