Amazing. I can't imagine peddling a 30 pound bike 100 miles in an upright position. My only problem with El Tour (other than the training time that I do not have - posted in different topic) is that they won't allow aerobars. I'm a 50 year old business manager who has used a computer for 20 years and has carpel tunnel - so I need the aeros to take the weight & vibration off of my hands.

I only get into my aeros when I'm alone. So, I don't endanger anybody else or myself. But, I guess it's some kind of racing rule, so they apply it to El Tour also. Bummer
