Definitely. Col de la Cayolle was as beautiful as ever, and I rediscovered Col d'Allos. Really like that one. Got an average of 15kph on the final day, which is pretty decent, I think.
What climb was that on?
Col d'Allos from Barcelonette |

As a matter of fact, I have Asperger's Syndrome, and thus, I do have social challenges caused by mental lapsing. On the upside, I use 39.7% of my brain, as opposed to the average 9.2%.
I heard that is a complete myth
The Mythbusters did an episode on that and found that we use more than 10 % on average. Myth Busted 
Just as a measure in place: who did they test? Some people use more of their brain at different times, especially those with diseases. The average, healthy person, will use about 8% of their brain at a normal time. They are capable of 10.1%, but never use that much. This data was from 5 years ago, but was a 5000 person test by the NSF. It may be inadequate now, but that was accurate a while ago.

I didn't have internet, I'll upload them some time tomorrow. But it's a bit disappointing, to be honest  And the batteries went dead on that final day, so no data for the final ride. (and no, I did do 15 kph, I don't need to lie on an internet forum, but I see it looks dodgy "batteries went dead on my best day" ) |

I should have suggested a virtual cookie emoticon for the forum. I would have won then, right? Of course, cactus-jack would have a LOT of cookies.

Oh, on a more serious topic...
I noticed that a lot of people who have issues don't get any replies/help when they post in the PCM: Technical issues subforum, only in the PCM: General subforum.

I can already see that trend on generation born 1991 and later.
