Good article on cycling from NY Times

Here is the link: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/06/19/fashion/19fitness.html.
There are some small inaccuracies/inconsistencies in the article. 1 -- Christian Vande Velde, who is a great American cyclist, only led the Giro D'Italia for a short span of the entire race. 2 -- Jonathan Vaughters suggests that a $1500-$2000 bike is incrementally different than an $8000 bike. Yet, the article emphasizes using power meters, which themselves cost $800-$3000. The lesson: take your time making equipment choices. What you do with your equipment is more important than the equipment you have -- that's the simple truth.
