...and that edge is being able to continue breathing through the ride..? :P

yes, and some performance. Lots of times I end up riding past and away from the group. But they catch me eventually!

Will be doing it again sun morning :whistling:

Must be the salbutamol as well

Maybe someone else in the peleton was juiced to his eye balls and farted in front of Froom.  That could explain the spike.

No sir, chest was feeling a little tight on the first climb and just as I squeezed the button on my asthma meds, my front wheel hit a pothole. By the time I recovered I was blown up like a salbutamol balloon.  :whistling:

Day 14: Amazing Alignment Reveals an Einstein Ring. The galaxy circled at center is one of a group of galaxies called Luminous Red Galaxies that have unusually large mass, containing about ten times the mass of the Milky Way. The blue semi-circle that appears to surround the red galaxy is the real prize in this image. This blue horseshoe is a distant galaxy that has been magnified and warped into a nearly complete ring by the strong gravitational pull of the massive foreground Luminous Red Galaxy. To see such a so-called Einstein Ring required the fortunate alignment of the foreground and background galaxies, making this object’s nickname “the Cosmic Horseshoe” particularly apt. The Cosmic Horseshoe gives us a tantalizing view of the early Universe: the blue galaxy’s redshift—a measure of how the wavelength of its light has been stretched by the expansion of the cosmos—is approximately 2.4. This means we see it as it was about 3 billion years after the Big Bang. The Universe is now 13.7 billion years old.
