Tell me I am correct or I will just argue with you.

In the slowtwitch tradition I believe the following is correct.

Power Cranks are the best thing to happen to cycling since the wheel was invented.
Ride in your aero bars in any setting you want, including a high speed echelon in crazy cross winds.
Lance was justified in cheating as everyone was doing it.
The race for 7th was a brilliant idea.

You missed a couple:

It's not drafting if they don't catch you.
Squats and deadlifts will improve your bike.
Bricks are mandatory if you want to run well off the bike.

I agree with one of those strongly, and one of those I half agree with =)

Yes it was. I might add it was a perfect post to get back into the swing of this forum.

Do you disagree?

I know how much of a fan of Lance you are, just like creationism. you must half agree with the power cranks point.
If you do not agree with the other points it is because you are wrong.

I tend to do my squats and deadlifts straight off the bike.

Yes I am. I also find it very creepy that you are stalking me.

I generally squat right off the bike too, but I tend to stay in that position for 1-5 minutes.

"Stalking" is such a judgmental word.

Because no wrong can come of that. You can only get insanely faster by riding in the aero position in a pace line

Crossfit is stupid, like any exercise trend incorrectly used.. I have treated so many Lsp injuries post crossfit workout I could write a book about it.

You're so correct, I would fire you midseason just because of your correcty correctness.

I did, the whole one ball thing is why he said "half". What did he strongly agree with? The race for 7th?
