UNIVERSAL TRUTH OF CYCLING #26:  THE BEST POST RACE / CENTURY / EPIC RIDE RECOVERY IS DRINKING A BEER IN THE SHOWER.

What? Never done this? Stop reading this and go try it out. The combination of super-hot shower and ice-cold beer is one of life’s greatest pleasures. And no, we’re not exaggerating. We have one good friend (who requested anonymity) who, while in Mexico, pulled off the ultimate trifecta – hot shower, ice-cold beer and personal service from his lovely wife. It was such a massive coup that, even though he was in his late 30’s he texted soon after. An American hero. But enough about Jason Elm. One last thing: 18mph is not responsible for any personal injury as a result of overindulgence or broken glass. So don’t drop the bottle. Or just transfer it to an unbreakable cup, okay? Now enjoy. And you’re welcome.
