Now pwrhqaps it is genetics but before this time I was entering the local races and woiuld catch up to the 1-2-3's from a minute behind without a lot of problems. But that was stupid racing and I could only hang on the back having blown everything catching them.

Although when I was riding with our group I did return to the level of being able to give the leaders 1/4th mile and catch and pass them before the top of the hills. > >I have been wondering if my problem simply isn't excess weight since I would be very slow and hardly capable of keepingf up with the back group in the early season. Then as the excess weight came off I would climb faster and faster until I could ride with the main group and then take off and catch the rabbits. What's your BMI (or Tefethen BMI is you are very tall) ? Mine is 25. And what are your hemoglobin levels? []'s -- Don't be evil - Google 2004 We have a new policy - Google 2012 Google Fuchsia - 2021
