Aboot 10-15 years ago

papa owned a KTM bike.

A tandem; bicycle built for two.

Had a special buddy to ride with.

Well you will be surprised how big a difference 1kW makes ...  I cycle with a power meter (so I can see my power input to the bike) on my crank - Typical 100km ride on flattish roads (road bike) .... about 4 hours ... average power is 140W !

1000 w = 1.34 hp

A typical pro will generate somewhere around 400 to 600 watts

over a sustained period such as a time trial

or climbing a mountain pass. 

So should be able to smoke Lance Armstrong, 

uphill, on this ?!

Papa will also have to make sure it will not get nicked while his head is turned the other way...

The tyres defy logic on a vehicle that so lacks power that you need to minimise rolling resistance.

OK except for the faggy fat tyres. 

How does papa identify?

the fat tyres makes the ride bearable, it reduces the ferocity

of the pounding of your <deleted> by adding more air cushion

and a wider bigger contact area, it also makes it more stable

when running over a small stone.

i think the biggest catch in spite of those fat tyres is going to be the saddle,

i would do my best to find something with more surface area

to reduce stress on my most innocent tender <deleted>.

 

this issue aside, i think it is perfect,

it may be possible to go to a big bike saddle maker

and have them make a convenient back seat

 

another possible catch is i have read cycling

is not a good thing for a bad back, it may be the

bent over formed like a big U back that messes with the back.

since you no longer need to maximize power with legs

it may be a good idea to go to a big bike shop and make a

tall monkey handle bar for better posture, a straight back.

 

its not very practical if you live in a condo high up,

you would need to carry the battery to your condo

for recharge

Papa have you not heard Lance Armstrong may possibly been using steroids can you believe it?

The reason they give the leader a yellow jersey is to remind him what colour his pee is supposed to be.
