    I was watching Discovery Channel's multi-part series on Lance -- He had
    an interesting cyclo-compter which seemed to be about 4x2 inches in
    size. Anyone have clue to make/model?

    Quoted message said:

    From the size, that's probably his power meter (SRM, I think).



    Bingo -- that's it -- hmmm seems a bit of an overkill for moi.

  10. Again, we are faced with someone with the audacity not to conduct
    exhaustive usenet searches before posting... and lord knows Lance never
    would have changed his cyclo-computer since that April 2000 thread that
    was referenced...

  11. No Lance did not use his SRM while racing in the tdf this year. The SRM
    is to heavy for most racing situations.

    Ohh please Al -- as if there's some kind of etiquette to search
    Newsgroups prior to asking a question.

    Exactly, he should have searched r.b.r. archives and concluded
    that most people here are pretentious snobs who will refuse to
    answer simple questions.

    That's his point.

  18. his own brain...better than any cylcocomputer and it interfaces with his riding , the elements and his steed better than any manmade creation...7x wins.....cant get a better computer than that......even with all the gizmos and science they used around him...he made the final decision, he rode the race, he made the call...yep his brain did all that!!

    as an excercise, occasionally take all the gizmo's off your bike and ride it naked...you'll be amazed how better you ride...get in touch with what the bike is doing, be alert to it, its responses, it needs, it's capabilities and press yourself to task...you'll become a better rider and you will not be so keen to rush out and buy the latests bling bling money sucker when you have the best piece of apparatus going sitting fair square between your ears...you've just got to use it occasionally!
