Pro racers aren't like you and me.

Today's live coverage of the Tour de France on www.cyclingnews.com contains this gem:

The peloton is currently riding pedaling at a good 50 km/h [over 30 m.p.h.]. Is it strenuous? Well, Sebastian Lang's heart rate is not much above a hundred, sometimes below.

They're not like us. I bike commute in a peleton of one.
