I know you have never heard of anyone actually reporting demonstrable improvement after PC’s so I thought I would try this one.
Email received today from Gerald Finken:
“I trained many mornings on my PC/Lemond bike this past winter and spring and am pleased to say that they have made a difference. At Nationals in the 50-54 age group I won the All-Around by taking 3rd in the RR, 2nd in the TT – missed it by 0.48 seconds, and 2nd in the Crit were I lost by only 0.5 seconds after lapping the field with another rider in tow—who went by me at the wire! My new saying is 1 second = 2 seconds. I plan to train the entire off season on PC’s and win all three jerseys next year. My latest result was 4th at the Chicago Crit in the Masters 35+ 1/2/3 where the closest rider was 7 years younger and the rest 15 years younger!”

Sorry, no power data so I know this means nothing but thought I would try again. What do you think? Possibly? Maybe?
