Skuke, thank you for the riding in the grass suggestion. In fact, there is a nice grassy area inside the running track over at the university that might do real well. But I sort of wonder what riding on grass will show me about riding on asphalt. Are you sure there is a crossover?
The shifting reference : I could blame my poor sick brain, but I won't. I was thinking of the way a person shifts to an easier gear AS they are slowing down -- habit to me, but I guess we do it so we are there when it's time to accelerate again -- and somehow turned it in the cause of the slowing down, as if it were compression braking like you do in a car! Oops. Causal fallacy, as we say in my line of work.
