Has anybody investigated the use of (or better yet, used) the Allied Aerospace Low Speed Wind Tunnel in San Diego for bike/position testing? What does it cost? How many times/yr is it available? Did you have to put together your own group or just sign up for a time slot? How long did you spend in the tunnel? Did you get photos, video and data or just data? Was it worth it?

Wind tunnel time costs $1000's per hour with a usual minimum of a full day. -

Forget about aerodynamics and cycling. It's all marketing nonsense! Cycles don't get the required speed up as a planes wing requires to take off. Bicycles are not aerodynamic at any speed anyway!
It's all frogpoop
