smooth like buttah

Thanks to Sprinter Della Casa... from Vicious Lifecycle... and YouTube:



That gave me some contact fatigue, meaning I got tired watching that.

15 years ago I regularly winter roller races at Pedal Power in Acton MA. We did 1K flying start sprints. If you couldn't hold a cadence of 170 you weren't even in the top ten (unless there were less than ten). I would start the sprint at about 175 and finish still over 160, which got me second a couple of times, but I never won. There was a local guy at the time - Ray Schultz - who was on the 1980 olympic track team. He always won, and not by small margins. We took the effort of hooking up a cadence monitor to his bike just to see how fast he was spinning. He never dropped below 200, and didn't even come close to his PR.
