The Lady Who Makes Me Pedal has started a campaign to get me to limit my cigarette smoking by imposing a Soviet-style regimen of preparatory weekend rides, culminating in perhaps the Amish Country Century <http://amishcountrybiketour.com> later this summer. At the moment, I am riding and liking my Bosco'd 2 top-tubed hillborne (it's a greenie, 56). We are not at all go-fast people, and so far, I have managed a 50 mile outing without any ill effects. It seems like I really can get down into a decent resting position at the front of the bar for a little aero time, then move and shift quite a bit on the bars to counter numbness, pressure, etc...
There's nothing about using any bars -- as long as they're comfortable for you -- to do a century that's crazy. What's crazy is smoking cigarettes. Forget the Soviet-style regimen; just throw the damned things away and quit. Do it tonight.
