You want impact cycling? Go ride on/over cobblestones and your problems are taken care of. You'll come into your own soon enough.

I'm wondering what any of this has to do with the defined list topic. If C-Record is off-topic, even if well intentioned, imagine how completely off-topic all this amateur medical babble is. It's like the list is turning into Bicycling! before my eyes.

Apologies for the off-topic post, may it at least stem the flow.
