Jim, when you ride with Lynn and hit the hills, do I need to guess from which aspect you would most likely be viewing the lady and her bike?

I think you would probably guess correctly.  My bike is actually lighter than hers, but my body is 50% heavier and doesn't make 50% more power.  'Nuf said?  When we get to the hills, the Lynn/Bike combo are a beast!! (and I too mean that in a good sense).


But I also have to admit that drafting her up-hill has it's advantages, over and above that she's better than me at setting and maintaining a sustainable pace up-hill.
