You need to get fat in the off-season (and you won't really get that fat anyway)

Taking time off the bike can be scary and you might feel like you’re losing fitness, but for most cyclists, the benefits of an off-season outweigh the drawbacks. You won’t lose as much fitness as you think and you’ll probably come back even stronger. bit.ly/guide-to-offse…

The weird world of academic publishing this month: 1) Found fake article published under my name (can't remove) 2) Asked to publish book chapter, compensation = free copy of own chapter 3) solicited to buy reprints of our article, which we already paid to publish open access!


I've always loved watching the Olympics and have thoroughly enjoyed #Tokyo2020 so far, but I wonder what the games will look like in 40 years?

Advice for young athletes - Don't look at yearly training numbers from top pros & try to duplicate it. Takes years to build foundation needed. You'll burn out if you try to jump straight to it. Did 12-14 quality hrs/wk when I started off-season training & slowly worked my way up.

If you want to make your own rotor for disk brakes out of glass fibre, here's how. This one survived 1000 brake events. Beyond that is unknown. doi.org/10.1088/1757-8… #materials, #Engineeriing #notme #cycling
