Cycling maybe not so healthy after all!
URCM brings us the sad story of a sixty year old man, who was a
regular cyclist, dying of a heart attack during a ride. According to Chapman, Ravin & Co, he should have lived to be at least 90 because cycling keeps you so slim, fit and healthy, provided that you don't get killed earlier in life by an errant driver that is. Derek C |

Derek C You do appreciate the difference between a population average and an individual sample from that population? What you are saying here is analogous to trying to imply that England does not have a temperate climate because the temperature reached -26.1C in Cumbria on the 22nd December 2010. |

Correct. The figure normally quoted is a 20:1 gain. As usual you are playing semantic games and trying to cloud the issues. False. That is what *you* are doing. But of course you know that. The unfortunate cyclist failed to make the expected minimum of three score years and ten. Now please post the message IDs where any of those you mentioned have claimed that the well-documented increased life expectancy that cycling confers, is applicable in the specific case of every single cyclist, to the point of guaranteeing any minimum life expectancy. - -- Guy Chapman, http://www.chapmancentral.co.uk The usenet price promise: all opinions are guaranteed to be worth at least what you paid for them.

Yes but if he had been a motorist he probably wouldn't have lived to 50 anyway. Doug. |
