Comments

Mike commented on his own time: "During Coast-to-Coast, so left lane of carriageway was available instead of the bike track. May have made it easier bx the bike track looks more up/down.... but on the other hand I was having to negotiate around heaps of people."

Mike commented on his own time: "ouch"

Mike commented on his own time: "thought this list was getting too long.
A 45 yr old commuter on a 1982 Raleigh tourer complete with pannier & laptop PC(hence 17kg bike weight) did this.
If you're going to post something slower, you probably deserve the ragging your mates will give you."

I believe it's tied to the physiology of the person. I figure that among the factors are the ratio of fast-twitch & slow-twitch muscle fibres in that rider's makeup. Ulrich & Armstrong have spent huge amounts of time finding their optimums, and there's a very obvious difference in their cadences. . . . but they're both being really efficient.
