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.
Seventy to 100 revolutions per minute is an ideal cadence for most cyclists. Riding a bike over short distances is simple and relaxing, but when you start putting many miles under your wheels or climbing steep hills it can be a tough workout. Maintaining an ideal pedaling speed helps to counteract the rigors of a long ride on your body. Cyclists refer to their pedaling speed as cadence.
