Heart rate doesn't lie. Even if the feel hasn't come back to his fingertips on the throttle, the body compensates on its own. Only spiking on the bike and not at home — having watched guys ride hurt, that's exactly what hiding pain looks like from trackside. He doesn't have to say a word; the numbers already told us everything.

Fascinating how much heart rate alone reveals.

But that's just him saying it — the actual numbers aren't public, right?
