Does owning a new carbon fiber bike make one ride faster because of psychological (yabang) reasons or because the bike really rides faster? I wonder
But ever since I got this S works super bikes, I noticed that I often am tired and had to spend a great deal of time sleeping (fatigued or part of growing old) I noticed too that I ride faster and harder.
1. In the bike ride yesterday, though my kapadyak had a carbon frame bike (which I sold to him) en route to the blessing, I still was ahead of him (he is much younger than me) and even overtook him after I stopped /waited for him.
2. Today, a MTB overtook me and we took turns in overtaking each other: at Montevideo, at Callahan, and Namay. He must be only 20+. That was hard riding. Was it because the Venge Vias is a fast bike, or pride egged me on to get ahead of him?
What do you think?
