Flutterby™! : Change in technique

Oh yeah, just wanted to mention this for my records: On Wednesday, Zack and I grabbed the tandem to meet up with Charlene so we could avoid multiple cars for some of the logistics. Zack is a pretty strong pedaler, but not a very experienced one, so while we were holding 22MPH we were doing so with a fairly low cadence. At some point I shifted my weight back and up a little bit, a really subtle change, and my power changed amazingly. On Friday I biked up Mount Tam, and got there much faster (and more easily on the steep parts) than I've done in quite a while. A good reminder that there are things to relearn and subtle adjustments in pedal technique that can change a lot.
