The goal for every determined triathlete—the Holy Grail of our sport, you might say—is the ability to maintain or even increase effort and decrease (or at least minimize) the exertion pain you feel during hard workouts and in races. The problem, as we can all attest to, is that it is extremely difficult to resist [...]

I thought all the cycling dads (and moms) would appreciate this cartoon that appeared in a recent issue of The New Yorker. The artist, Maggie Larsen, is clearly a cyclist, but clearly not an obsessed cyclist (or triathlete).
