Ratz - the only real place for this is the Cruzeum - Maybe I should do a crowd fund and see if I can raise the $

I just watched the women climb it. The best did it in about 55 minutes. Not too shaby!

Great job Hardy - that was a tough one for sure. You know the Pros have a lot easier time of it! - They only have to spend about 45 min climbing - so the pain is over much quicker - for us -> it seems to never end!

Hi Everyone! This has been a great challege for the summer and I wanted to first thank Ken for suggesting it. I certainly needed a ittle motivation to get back to riding again (after 8 months) and this has certainly helped. I hope you all feel the same way. I applaud all of you for the rides...

This looks like a softrider to me, but what does @dougburton say? He can probably tell you the year it was made

Great job Derek - you killed it and beat me by 2:45 I had the same question when I first started these climbs. I figured out what Zwift was doing. They appear to be averaging your wattage when first start riding when they drop you into the course. It is odd - if you look at the descrition of...

Interesting product - and it looks like it works well. You would probably like Molten Speed Wax even better. https://moltenspeedwax.com/ When you dip the entire chain into a pot of hot wax it adhears to it better than spraying something on the surface.

TIm, I see Ratz answered most of you questions. If you are near me, I have assembled the largest kown collection of Cruzbikes - I call it the Cruzeum. I have all older versions of the "Q, or Quest" family and most can be ridden. Cruzbike also just made me a dealer, and now I have all of the 4...

You are funny Jim! RIdding this climbs makes you stronger for sure Gee - what did you do with that extra 41 mins?

Yes, quite an interesting piece of Cruzbike History. I think it had a few design flaws - but I'll let @doughburton fill us in on those as he is the expert Unfortunately this is still one I am looking for - but hopefully one will turn up for me.

The only think I had on the calendar this year was to do Natchez 444 as a 2-man team with Cliff - therefore "time to get back in shape"! :) I doubt I would ever do Borrego - it is just so far away - but I've learned never to say never. :)

What a great ride Jeff - and you beat me by 1 minute! It doesn't sound like much after 90 of them but is still significant in my book! Congrats

Great job Jim - That was a tough one - I remember it! :(

Bob - you can put me down for these - I have lots of wheels to cover these days Have you seen my time lapse setup video of the Cruzeum:

Yes, Tourmalet is worse - as I said I think my biggest issue was fueling - so make sure take in good calories

Good Idea - I have always wanted to do this ride - I noticed they said it was the "final" one - seems like so many events are being cancelled

I re-rode Col De Pike - this morning. It was hard of course I improved 46 seconds to 12:20 https://www.strava.com/activities/9493742636 I had my goal set to get close to Derek, but he still has me by a full minute!

Yes, the Dolphin Box is huge - plus you can't get into it while riding I finally resorted into making some of my own: This one each side has a flap that opens - I can carry 2 1-liter bottles in each side if I want.

I rode Tourmalet yesterday and just about killed myself: https://www.strava.com/activities/9481440443 I have done all 8 climbs now! I did the last 4 "long" ones every other day = 8 days Tourmalet was a horribly long 89 minutes for me and I'm still feeling it today - First issue is I had just...

Super great history lesson Doug - I'll put this in the "History of Cruzbike" doc for sure!
