Sun screen and distance training - check Hi John, Sun screen - check. Yes I had thought of this but neglected to include it in my list. Thanks for the reminder. I agree with the distance recommendations but winter, work schedule, and training equipment challenges have made this a bit...

Prepping a Q for Bike Sebring I've registered for the Bike Sebring Century and will be riding the Quest. I had originally wanted to try the 12 Hour but since I'm new to ultracycling, my longest ride to date has been 52+ miles, and my winter training has not been as robust as I had wanted it...

26x1.0 Tires I have hit over 32+ mph (51+ kph) on a Cruzbike Quest with 26 x 1.00 tires but handling gets pretty squirrelly riding those tires on gravel, mud, snow and other non-pristine surfaces. -Eric

Triple B on the Silvio I have managed to fit the new Bachetta Brain Box (BBB aka Triple B) onto the back of the Quest by removing the rack that comes with the Quest and repositioning the rear seat stays where they connect at the top of the seat post. The BBB is designed to be mounted on an...
