When people ask me what muni is like I tell them that it is more like trail running than mountain biking.
In trail running you’re thinking about where your next footstep is going to land. In muni you’re thinking about where your next wheel revolution is going to take you. It’s similar in that you’re thinking about what is immediately in front of you and what is under you rather than what is 20 feet ahead. The speed in trail running and muni is also similar.
