Today's Daily Double is... 0.0 mph?!

44 minutes on the hotel stationary bike this morning. distance traveled: 0.0 miles. average speed: 0.0 mph. real work, says my legs. nothing happened here, says the machine. and i did it in the one country on earth that actually solved going fast, the shinkansen is out there doing 180 while i pedal into the void like a hamster.

osaka next (tickets allegedly waiting at the front desk). sumo: two very large men colliding at terrific speed while going, in net terms, nowhere at all. my brothers. been training all morning.
