hi Grapey,
I don't think you understand me...
I never said he was a boob. I was just curious to know if it was possible, to properly and exactly, calculate where the biker has to be on his bike, and what speed he needs to travel at, to be able to climb the hill, bumps and all.
I'm interested in the science of it - not really the math.
For example: Maybe a computer, with a laser and lidar, all mounted on the bike, could calculate the slope of the hill and its variances, bumps and whatever, and tell the rider how far to learn forward or back, and how much to accelerate or decelerate, in order to get up the hill. The scanners are there, the computers are there, and so is the software (sort of). Can it be done?
All geek, no boob, I promise.
