The scum Flunky claimed that he averaged 20 mph on a 200 mile ride. When confronted wiuth that obvious lie he simply eraced it from the ride site.
 He has claimed that my 10 and sometimes 12 mph average speeds are really low as if he could do better.
 My cop friend just sent a message about a local FAST youg rider that did:
 "Look at this guy's stats after his ride.  Wow!
 Actually, something on his bike went haywire.  His actual ride was 41 miles at 16.3mph average. "
 The "something went wrong" refers the legal power limiter. I do about 10 mph average on a course with the same amount of climbing and this guy, the Cop I've talked about before, who was really fast for a sport rider before his heart problem a year and a half ago.
 If he thinks that a 16.3 mph on an e-bike is fast, perhaps Flunky can tell us his average speed taken on the Garmin which he must be since he was telling all of you that it had to be MY software for me to get a beta release.
 Those of you who, while working, could spend all day on the newsnets raise your hands.

I check email, read and reply, a dozen or more times per day and look at rec.bicycles and rec.auto afterwards. So, essentially, I'm on usenet all day.
