Does it really work that way John?

Were it not for the weather, I'd LOVE to take this up. Easy on the joints, and I feel like a million bucks after a good ride..

It's amazingly liberating, Rob.

About as close to feeling "free as a bird" as one can get.

The video is aimed at the mainstream novices, of course.

A guy like you would turn into a total hammer head like me sooner or later, guaranteed.

The endorphins produced by an hour on the stairmaster isn't jack compared to what will flood your body after blistering flats and climbing tough hills for 50 miles at a 21mph average.

It is hard to come down for many hours after a ride like that, honestly.

Best natural high on earth, beats any booze or drug.

I was told I would become one, a hardcore roadie, early on.

I laughed and said NO WAY, but I'm a proud roadie today.

Oh, and complaining about the weather is not permitted, dude.

You take whatever elements the day gives you.

Today hit over 100 here, and honestly our training ride probably should have been postponed... but, ride we did!

Here's an iconic climb on my bucket list, the Alpe d'Huez- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idEsfGJ0kj4

And, a breathtaking descent by young pro Peter Sagan- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zR3QoZWMkok
