I wonder how much medical grade injectable adrenaline is, compared to the Trek gear?

“Man on a bicycle can go three or four times faster than the pedestrian, but uses five times less energy in the process. He carries one gram of his weight over a kilometer of flat road at an expense of only 0.15 calories. The bicycle is the perfect transducer to match man’s metabolic energy to the impedance of locomotion. Equipped with this tool, man outstrips the efficiency of not only all machines but all other animals as well. The bicycle lifted man’s auto-mobility into a new order, beyond which progress is theoretically not possible.”

I watched a Nature-type show on Netflix that said the most efficient method of locomotion for land mammals belonged to the kangaroo.

Let's put a kangaroo on a bicycle!!

On a treadmill!!!!

The ride was a 3 amigos gray beard affair, punctuated by one taking of the Lords name. We were ripping along a leaf strewn, wet, rocky, muddy, rooty, side hill when I heard the guy behind me offend our Lord. His front tire had wandered out to the lip of the trail which totally gave way. He disengaged his feet and pushed off his handlebar leaving him standing in the trail with his bike tumbling down-slope.

Two riders kept going. :D

Well, I guess so. Any software that keeps a bike's wheels attached to the bike without the use of spokes has got to be pretty spendy (or is this one of those flux capacitor things?).
