Climb every mountain
A few days ago a friend of mine, Charlie Beristain, emailed me a link to a Website that is a must-view for anyone interested in hill climbing on their bikes, cycle training, graphs, charts and other obessive-related material.
Doug's Northeast Cycling Site ( http://home.sprintmail.com/~dsjansen/ ) is a wonder of tables showing such things as power and weight to time ratios for hill-climbing cyclists. It comes as no surprise to learn that Doug works for an aerospace firm, where - I'm guessing - he might be an engineer.
Charlie is worth mentioning as well, having already achieved 15 minutes of fame for not only getting noticed in Bicycling Magazine, but for the reason why the publication saw fit to print his name in the first place: At the World's Masters Mountain Bike race in Quebec in 2003, Charlie placed second overall in the 60-Plus category.
Having ridden with Charlie when he came up from his home in Northeastern U.S. last fall, I can attest to the fact that he is not only fit, but a great bike handler as well. Charlie also runs a great bike-related Website over at: http://pages.prodigy.com/CharlieB/page.htm
