after many hours of watching the tour de france, if joe wants any chance of catching the grail he’ll have to do a “daredevil decent” or else he’ll do a menchov and lose precious seconds.
He’s going to have to kick the cadence up over 100 if he wants to get anywhere… Grail doesn’t know he’s there yet. There’s still air under the grail’s pedal….
I think some of the comments are just as amusing as the comic itself. Warp factor, ludicrous speed, going to plaid! Flux capacitors! Great bunch of readers!
You know, that didn’t occur to me but you’re all quite right; 90 IS a bit of a low cadence to catch such a fast rider. Between 90 and 100 is what *I* generally pedal at and, while I’m pretty fast compared to “casual” riders, I’m certainly no speed demon when it comes to marathon and professional riders.
hahaha this cracks me up
But what happens when he hits the hill? Can’t wait to find out.
Has Joe dissolved into thin air?
David, he went to warp. Don’t you know anything?
No, he just achieved warp speed
“I’ve given her all she’s got, Captain, and I can’t give her no more.”
He’s going to ludicrous speed. If he doesn’t look out, he’ll go plaid.

Joe’s going to go back in time and keep Fred from being hit by that damn blue car.
ROTFLMAO@ Marrock!
I agree Marrock, we just can’t see the flaming tread marks left by his tires. (don’t forget he outfitted his bike with a flux capacitor as well)
No, that’s the real tragedy, Mark. Yehuda’s got a working flux capacitor on his bike.
Joe poked holes in his to save weight.
I love how Joe leaves his own “bubble of thoughts” behind.
The big question though – the elephant in the room – the one that no-one wants to ask – is Joe DOPING?

Why such a low cadence (90)?
That is so simple folks, he hit 88MPH. Oh, and Joe is not doping that is obvious, but “The Grail” is, that is why Joe can’t catch him.
From the unfilled entries in the dropdown list, it may take joe a few more days to catch the grail.
Or maybe he should have gone riding in the opposite direction and after a bit of warp, he would have had a head-on collision with the grail.
To find the grail one must have faith. does Joe?
I’m surprised nobody has considered that perhaps he’s simply being blown away by The Grail.
I will be looking into these allegations of doping immediately.
No no no, you’re all missing it.
Jens Voigt has the answer:
“Too much blood in the legs…….. not enough for the brain!”
Finally, Joe has hit the speed at which his helmet doesn’t look dopey!
88 miles per hour!
