Has anyone else noticed this.
I notice that after a ride, if I have a nap in the day, rather than stay up till normal sleep time, I find my legs feel more recovered, or if the next day I wake up and still find my legs are stiff, and then in the afternoon have a nap, I wake up and it's like the speed of recovery has just leapfrogged.

To put it in simple terms, you recover during sleep."A cyclist has nothing to lose but his chain"

I find this is true.
It works for me on a saturday when I'm often as rested as a newt.

This is news to you?
Why do you think the human body needs to sleep at all otherwise?!0
