I said most weight should go into the pedals, but that it was one of those super-complex dynamic things. Now it occurs to me that there's one time - at the top of each stroke, when weight must come off to switch to the other pedal.[...] The handlebars should carry the weight of the lower arms and hands only.. The rest of the rider's weight should be on the seat, with a significant portion being carried by the seat back. -- Tēm ShermĒn - 42.435731,-83.985007 I am a vehicular cyclist. *** Just curious, Tom. A number of your "reply posts" appear as new threads, with no "Re." in the Subject field. Any idea why? Because I update thread titles to match the subject when thread drift occurs. However, many programs will still recognize previous posts in the thread, e.g. Mozilla Thunderbird provides a "references" line in the header, where the previous posts up-thread are numbered, and can be accessed simply by clicking on the number. Bill "we won't mention my rogue question mark and lack of quoting" S. Or Micro$oft Windows Live Mail 15.4.3502.922 *not* recognizing the signature separator, i.e " --". It seems Micro$oft is too arrogant to follow established protocols. **************** Hey, the remnant question mark seems to be gone, at least. No idea why they'd CHANGE the '' quoting convention, which worked fine in LiveMail until the 2011 "upgrade". I still think you should indicate that you're /replying/ to content in the Subject field, even if resorting to the ol' "Was: Tibetan Monkey Spams Newsgroups Relentlessly" (for example) shtick. Bill "no sweat off my mousebutt; I barely check in here nowadays" S. Anything that lets you type in the message body ought to let you insert quote delimiters. |

(couldn't happen here but still...) With the last update of WLM that removed the auto quote, I switched to Thunderbird. |
