Good news for skinny cyclists, there :-) Forgive me if I'm wrong but don't professional cyclists (and especially tdf ones) have a particularly short lifespan? I wish I could find the info on the web but IIRC professional cyclist are pretty much renowned for dying relatively young. Tim |

Chris Brasher was an exception. Those who maintain their fitness do OK but most stop when they retire (at a relatively young age) from competitive sport. Tony |
