Microsoft just reported its Q4 earnings and the news is mixed. The good news: it's a beat on both profit and revenue, excluding extraordinary items. Microsoft reported: Earnings per share of 62 cents versus expected EPS of 58 cents. $22.2 billion in revenue versus expected revenue of 22.04 billion.
First ride today on my first road bike (been a mountain biker until now). Averaged 13mph on a rolling route with a couple of sharp climbs. I'm quite pleased with that considering I'm still learning the bike, how to use the gears, ratios etc. I also expect it is going to take me a while to get faster.
This equates to an average speed of 42.6km/h and a finishing time of 56:15. This means approximately 12w are gained for every one per cent increase in efficiency in this example. This example uses two extremes of cycling efficiency, but the reality is that almost all cyclists fall within a much tighter range.
