Barb: Loved the visual of scrapping gum off your shoe. I've been working on pedalling in a circle but I was pulling up on the stroke by pulling up inside my shoe! I know I know......at least it was a start! This morning I rode with the gum scrapping picture in my head and WOW!!!! I took close to 2 mins off my time coming to work in a headwind no less! Course my legs are probably gonna yell at me tonight coz I used yet Another set of muscles!

So my question????? When standing in the pedals, toe down or foot flat?? I was pedalling toe down but today tried both ways since I was pedalling different anyway. I felt more power with toe down but that doesn't make it the most efficient! Any help is appreciated.
