    You’re making so many assumptions about the diet and equipment used by your statistically significant cyclist that it’s almost cherry-picking, my dude. You realize that, right?

      Yeah, that was literally a cherry picking example, showing that in ideal situation, something a person could in theory work for, could be a lot better than the given numbers suggested.

      This was all based on assumptions because there was no data available anymore used for that mini study, just laying out thoughts there for my own amusement.

        Definitely a ton if variability in what you’d actually put out depending on bike type, speeds, diet etc
