	What is a Peloton?
		Peloton is a term used to describe a large group or pack of people in a bicycle road race.
		Another advantage to being in the front of the peloton is the fact that a change in the front portion becomes increasingly greater once it reaches the back of the group.
		Since the term peloton is used to refer to professional cyclists within a group, the term is also sometimes used as a general term for professional cyclists.

	Peloton- July 2004
		The peloton in its simplest form is a group of individual riders with personal and team motives and goals that are assembled together to achieve the goals set for them.
		Individual members of the peloton may work to protect their leader from crashes, break away’s (small groups or individuals trying to get a lead on the pack), wind, or other forces that appear during the day’s ride.
		When the peloton corners, or descends, the wide body of the flat land peloton shifts to a narrow form like a snake, and it winds its way around and down to the wider and straight roads that allow it to reform into a large wide pack and then refocus on moving the pack forward quickly.

		A “peloton” is a cycling metaphor used to describe a large group of riders who, by drafting behind one another throughout a race, are able to leverage aerodynamic forces to conserve vast amounts of energy, actually pulling each other through the course.
		Peloton Solutions is an innovative and exciting new technology company dedicated to applying this same concept to the law enforcement community throughout rural America.
		Peloton has created an environment whereby cutting edge technologies may now be delivered to virtually any agency that needs them across a cooperative and highly cost effective, Application Service Provider (ASP) model.

		The peloton (from French, literally meaning ball and related to the English word platoon), bunch or pack is the large main group in a road bicycle race.
		The peloton travels as an integrated unit, like birds flying in formation, each rider making slight adjustments in response to the riders around them (particularly the one in front of each).
		Finally, being at the front of the peloton means dictating the tempo to some degree, and some teams or groups of riders may prefer different speeds as part of their tactics.

	Active.com - Conquering peloton position: Learn your way around the pack
		Your ability to move through the peloton efficiently plays a significant role in the amount of energy you use during a race or group ride, and hence influences the power you have left for the finish.
		If you watch the peloton carefully, you see accelerations and decelerations well before they affect you, giving you time to react with minimal additional effort.
		Likewise, it's typically easier to move up when the peloton is riding on wider roads, so you don't want to be at the back of the group when the roads get narrow.

	Peloton
		Peloton is a game that impressed everyone the first time out, dropped quickly the second and all but died on the third, but I think I know why this happened and what needs to be done.
		The main reason Peloton has been given a full review (rather than short shrift in Gamer's Notebook) is that the game is probably salvageable and the core movement system is quite ingenious.
		Otherwise, Peloton has an interesting, quick system, respectable production values, represents good value for money and, for that first outing, was a really thrilling game - so good that I considered it a find to rank with Sechs Tage Rennen in terms of recreating the feel of cycle racing as well as the cyclists themselves.

		For the few fortunate enough to be able to fund a large capital purchase and navigate cumbersome procurement processes, extensive implementation, integration, migration and support activities are a few of the obstacles in their path.
		The Founders of Peloton Solutions believe that there is a viable and beneficial alternative to the traditional model, and that there are significant advantages to be gained by leveraging the spirit of cooperation that already exists throughout most corners of this industry.

	FORTUNE: Pack mentality - Jun. 1, 2006
		Peloton is an old French word for "big ball of yarn" and also, roughly, "platoon." But in a bike race the peloton is the scrum of cyclists (150 or so in the Tour de France, which takes place every July) who race together to conserve energy during long stretches of each 125-mile-or-so stage.
		Some would arrange to be leading the peloton when they rode through their hometown to bask in brief glory.
		Pelotons are healthiest when the opposing forces in them are free to attack one another.

		The Peloton weighs in at 450 grams, and I'm less happy riding forks lighter than that.
		There is currently no 650c version of this fork, however I'd probably just stick with the OuzoPro Aero in 650c, because the blade is shorter and is therefore prone to less movement along a lateral plane.
		The Peloton costs $399, which is in the ballpark for a fork of this quality but is still a lot to bite off.

	The Old New Thing : The day the peloton lost its way
		Apparently, the rules require all riders to be within a certain amount of time of the leader; I guess the idea is to make the domestiques at least put up the appearance of trying to win.
		However, the race rules also contain a clause granting the race director the authority to cancel the "automatic disqualification" if doing so would be to the detriment of the race itself.
		I'm pretty sure one year the leaders crossed a level crossing just before a train came so the peloton had to stop and wait for the train to pass...
