I was reading the November issue of Bicycling, and I saw that they had found the definitive method for determining the victor in the November presidential race. Unfortunately, I can't find an online version of it, so I'll have to excerpt it.

Who's a Better Biker?

We have an important decision to make this November: Republican or Democrat? Cowboy or Yankee? Trek Fuel 98 or Serotta Ottrott ST? It's safe to say that the next president is going to be a cyclist, hanging chads be damned. So while other fine publications debate whether mountain biker George W. Bush or Roadie John Kerry would best represent the U.S. on the international stage, we want to know how they handle themselves on the bike.

They had Max Testa, former coach of a variety of professional biking teams and a physician at UC Davis's Sports Performance Lab, look at the two nominees' form while riding the bike. After covering several positives and negatives for each, they come to their conclusion:

Too close to call. What a cop out.

Addendum: They did have one recommendation for Senator Kerry: he should wear spandex instead of the baggie shorts he had on in the picture they included in the article. Yuck.
