    Getting Off the Fence

    Thanks! The photos are a huge help. I think you came up with some great solutions. I put the front light on using the holes in the bottom bracket. I used a handle bar mounted water bottle holder bracket. I used the side that is supposed to attach to a water bottle holder to attach to the...

    Getting Off the Fence

    Thanks. Great idea, especially since I am having trouble finding tubes for the tires that came with it. So far I like it, and will probable get rid of my commuter bike in favor of the Wind Cheetah. Still, I would rather be on the "V'.

    Getting Off the Fence

    Wow! Very nice. Too bad the company went under. I would love to have a rear fairing. Thanks for the photos. That looks like a good spot for the water bottles. Is there a WC user group?

    Getting Off the Fence

    Hobbling around without the walker now. Foot/ankle still swollen and painful. Can not comfortably get my cycling shoes on. Doubtful that I will be on the road with the "V" this summer, but will continue using it with the indoor trainer. Gained 10 pounds sitting around. So far, have dropped 2...

    Thanks, Will check for firmware updates.

    Getting Off the Fence

    The Wahoo cadence and speed sensors arrived. They are a little smaller than the Sigma sensors, but what is really nice is that they do not require magnets. No more accidently bumping them out of alignment. The speed sensor straps to hub, and the cadence sensor is mounted to the non drive side...

    Getting Off the Fence

    The Wahoo Key and the 30 pin to Lightening adapter arrived. Everything connected, nothing works. Maybe the cable is bad, or maybe there is a setting on the iPhone I do not know about. Will continue to try... The idea is to connect the existing cadence sensor and pulse sensor to iPhone via the...

    Getting Off the Fence

    Using an indoor trainer does have some advantages. It allowed me to finally get around to remapping the shift patterns of the Di2 synchroshift. The new shift pattern works great going up, but it will not allow me to use the shift pattern that I want when down shifting. It forces me to go all...

    Getting Off the Fence

    Thanks. It appears that an iPhone SE does not support ANT+. The Wahoo app and Kinomap run just fine on the iPhone. I do not have Apple computer/TV. My thought process of getting the ANT+ dongle for the iPhone was simplicity. I did not want to mess with the existing sensors on the "V", and...

    Getting Off the Fence

    It is here. The idea is to use a smart trainer for physical therapy, and later, to build my strength and endurance back to where it was before the accident. Since I am not sure how much I will use it after I am back to normal, I went for the least expensive smart trainer that...

    Traded the knee scooter for a walker a week ago, and drove for the first time yesterday. Did not kill anyone....

    New V20, New to Cruzbike

    I made a bit of an "Oops" on my post about the Wickwerks adapter. I forgot to mention that I am using the Shimano Di2 system. That may or may not make a difference.

    recumbent clothing

    For my winter riding: Long fingered cycling gloves, insulated skull cap under my helmet, normal cycling jersey with a poly pro turtle neck over it, with a Gortex cycling jacket over that. On my legs, rain/wind pants. They are water resistant on the front of the legs, but more breathable on...

    Zwift - Cruzbike Activities (races and group rides)

    Another dumb question. How about "smart" rollers? My thought process here is to not only get a work out, but work on improving my balance at the same time. I have never used rollers, but heard that they are a little more tricky than they look.

    Oh, sorry. Did not mean to come off sounding that way.

    Zwift - Cruzbike Activities (races and group rides)

    Thanks to both of you. Your responses have cleared up many of my questions. I have to admit, it annoys me to sink money into something that does not move. I would rather spend the $$ on a replacement for my commuter bike. But since I still can not walk, ride or drive, a trainer is looking...

    Zwift - Cruzbike Activities (races and group rides)

    So still recovering on the couch while my ankle heals. I am thinking an indoor trainer could be useful for my recovery. After reading all 36 pages of this thread and watching all the videos on the Zwift web site (yes, I am seriously bored), I still am somewhat confused. It seems clear that a...

    Getting Off the Fence

    Actually, it is in the correct place. This is where I typically post stuff, except when responding to other people's posts. What is in the wrong place, is the original post about the accident. With all the drugs I had in my system at that time, I have no idea how I even managed to boot up...

    Getting Off the Fence

    So after 5 weeks, two surgeries, and $71,000 in medical charges, the cast has been replaced with a much bulkier and heavier removable boot. At least I can take it off at night. It is still forbidden for me to put any weight on my right ankle. I have no idea what I hit which caused me to lose...
