Who You Calling Fat?

And yet in this same thread you wrote: "Just because someone is a good cyclist doesn't mean they're not overweight." CONTRADICTION! No it's not. You're creating a false dichotomy. Someone can be a good cyclist but not have a "pretty high level of physical fitness", if you define a pretty high level of physical fitness as not being overweight, which I think is not unreasonable. Fitness is not a single dimension attribute that is determined by whether they are able to ride a bicycle well. An example would be someone who was a pretty strong cyclist but was overweight with diabetes and clogged arteries and about to have a heart attack. Obviously, there would be a range of condition that a person could have between this extreme and that of "a pretty high level of physical fitness". |

What do I think it means that the editor of Bicycling weighs more than he should? I think it might mean he's spending too much time at the office . Of course he is. He's the EDITOR. He doesn't get to play with all the toys and write reviews about them, that's his subordinates. All an editor does is *edit* the magazine. Jasper |
