What is it? A winter Cruzbike Virtual TT Challenge Series that is created and administered by Larry Oslund. (Officially approved and with blessing of Cruzbike owners - Yes they will participate!) It will be 10 weeks long and we will use it to fine tune what will be a longer 26 week Summer TT...

Gosh - this is a lot of stuff to read. haha! Well - I had to give my wife something to get me for Christmas - and she said no to the Milan, so my 2nd choice was this aero-pod! :rolleyes: So I will be un-wrapping it next week and I will be testing it along-side my other known testing methods...

I sincerely doubt you will see much advantage running 60's as compared to 50's. The faster you are going, the flatter the terrain, and the less wind the more difference there is likely to be. I also doubt you would notice any real handling issues. If the wind were strong enough for you to feel a...

I am hoping to build something similar Seth. I think Rick Youngblood had created a nice adjustable seat, along with a few other Cruzbike members. I also think it would be handy if the seat hinged about 7" past the front, that way the seat area remains relatively flat. This would however make it...

He averaged 276watts for the first 12 hours! Also - really nice to have unlimited time in Specialized wind-tunnel to fine tune your aero. His legs are like tree trunks! Sure would be cool to see what he could do on a Vendetta. (We'll just have to wait until he hurts to much to keep doing it on...

Great pictures Kenneth. I see you have the disc brake up and rim brake back. I have that setup too. I really hate to use brakes, but it sure is nice to have the disc brake when you need it! :rolleyes: I can see you smiling while you are riding, and that is the goal. Happiness, Joy, while riding...

Hi Harry, Great to hear from you. I will probably be there as I am sure Kyle and B-girl will too since it is basically in their back yard. I am pretty sure the Parker's try to hit this one every year as well. And of course if Jason can get his 20-min power up to 360 - then he will be there too...

If you are talking 40 miles of 4-6% climbs then I would probably go with S40. That is still a lot of climbing and long 6% climbs on a V2o would really wear you down. I also think that adaptation would come into it a little bit. i.e. If regularly rode lots of miles on the 4-6% climbs, then you...

Any that is why "she" is the "so stinking fast" - Maria is the Queen of Cruzbike. This also matching the testing I did back when I has a Silvio 2.0 and a Vendetta 2.0. I could make so much more power on the Silvio. Problem is "aero is still King". Further confirmed when I built up "Frank" last...

Congrats Kenneth - lets see some pictures !

1st one is from the Retreat when Maria presented it to me. Another one of the back These KOM Jersey's are similar to the "new" 2018 Cruzbike Jersey that everyone at the retreat received. Just a different color scheme (These are mostly black, whereas this one is mostly white) Enjoy!

To set a WUCA (used to be UMCA) - the course has to be surveryed and you must have officials timing each lap, etc, etc. Technickally you could do it on the Sebring course, but it would be extremely costly to survey the entire course and to have officials and crew the entire time, and you could...

Hi Jason, Can you please explain what your "375 watts(ftp 356)" means. To me if I say my ftp is 260watts, then I can do 260 watts for an hour. Although some coaches and systems have seemed to deviate from that 1-hr standard to define your ftp as something from "around" 30-60 minutes, which to me...

Thanks Jesse : I had many local one here too, those were the hardest ones to "break" - but no rules against breaking your own KOM, as long as you set it during the time window. Maybe we should have a redo: Contest to see how many of our own KOM's we can break. haha - or NOT! :rolleyes: If you...

Another great KOM Kyle - always willing to ride with you - as long as I can get there that is! Hopefully we can re-assemble the "team" for another "100-mile" TT at Sebring in 2019! Yeah - I know the only way to beat you at the line is to not be there (i.e. Loose you with 10 miles left - which is...

Hey Jesse, First off - glad you are all healed up! Here is my take on your options: If you think you might like to ride the S40 with really wide tires on more of an off-road experience, I would go for that model, then you can still ride with the roadies at there level (at still amazingly fast...

Please remember to send your KOM list on to "webmaster@ultracycling.com" - so the results can be tallied. Any KOM's you have captured (that or over 1.0 miles) from Oct 31, 2017 thru Oct 6, 2018 count. If any have been flagged just because you are a recumbent those will count too, but you need to...

3 weeks from this weekend the American Diabetes Association will be having it's annual Tour De Cure at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. If you can make it, register & join the team: (Really fast Lawn Chairs) link to register...

The 1stAnnual Lauren’s Police Dept. Grand Fondo was held at the Michelin Proving Grounds track system in Laurens, SC on Sept 22, 2018. And Cruzbike was there with 3! The course was laid out to combine track #1 & track #2 via a narrow connector rode between the 2 tracks as seen below. Track #1...

Great ride - and great write up Ken, and the photo is superb! You look like you "mean" business - and you do! It is fun to chase down those DF packs. Sometimes I just wait several minutes at the start and let them get a lead - them take off and chase. Something about chasing gets those legs...
