| Ride Description: A somewhat disappointing workout tonight. I felt like I was going fast enough to reach that 9 mph average. Did a lot of big ring riding, and my avg. HR was the highest yet. But average speed was much slower than I thought it would be. |

Every week or so on the Bikejournal forum, a cyclist is injured and a thread is started asking for fellow BJ'ers to pray for them.
While I hope everyone recovers completely and quickly from any injury, I really don't understand this need to pray. (In most cases to a violent mythical Hebrew deity)
Heck, if I were an all powerful loving god, I wouldn't have let the cyclist get injured in the first place! But that's just me.
If prayer actually worked, sure I'd pray. But it doesn't.
The best explanation of prayer I've found is here... godisimaginary.com/i1.htm
Another great article on how prayer works... whywontgodhealamputees.com/superstition.htm
Does god answer prayers? Here's the answer... whywontgodhealamputees.com/god5.htm
Until next time, be safe, heal quickly and completely, and keep riding!
Peace.
