Well done, if you didn't record audio would you have more space on the memory card? I know if I drink water from my bottle I stop pedalling whist I do the deed but I guess you just pedal like crazy and white knuckle with one hand as you take your other hand off those short handle bars at...

I got the idea from the forum thread "my headrest is better than yours". To be quite frank if I am not having a recovery ride, the helmet Giro Air Attack in the summer here in Spain is too hot. I love the aero capabilities but if I am going on a climb the visor has to come off. At the summit...

Some Pics. The old inner tube suffered with deflation as I didn't do a very good job at sealing the ends, so having a small whole inner tube that can be blown up easily is wonderful and it doesn't have to fold so many times, the helmet adjuster doesn't rest so much on your neck either because of...

For the last 4 days , no riding because of an advent doing ACIM. Lots of interest into this. I am one of those that believes if you don't observe then the universe ((my) Universe freezes... It just stops). So coming back from that sort of reality into one of a Cruzbike reality was very...

Well they say you learn from your failures... Not sure what you would have learnt with this. :confused: When in Rome do as the Romans... Still I am going to enjoy the video. :cool:

Haaaa what an idea... I have my bikes hanging up at the side of the wall. With this idea of pulley system I can buy some more bikes or even make some.

The hills aren't too big over here so I pull. Mostly, I noticed that with the bullhorns further away I had too much tension on my forearm tendons so moving the bullhorns further back by a cm was much better. If the hill is higher I choose an easier gear with a higher cadence and just put my...

Your speed average is great... You must have been pushing it. Well done

I nearly lost it too on a similar turn. I now prefer to be clipped in with one foot and the other floating for stability. It was actually this situation that made me change my cassette so it's easier to get up the hill.

If you concentrate on the engine, your pace will have an upward momentum and your recovery after a ride would be a lot quicker than a DF rider. Just keep doing the kms. Truth be told things can only improve. Reward yourself as you get faster and when you get to different target weights...

That's a Great idea!

Isn't technology fantastic. Bikes are getting lighter and faster and even the engines are getting lighter and stronger. So an improvisation in the Silvio ... Whatever next ????

If it's in the velodrome ... The winner is the lone ranger , sorry, I meant the low racer. It's so so obvious you don't even need a trial. You would be better off trying out the new bbinfinite pulleys. Perhaps on the low racer.

Hey... The power to weight ratio is working. I am still in the big chainwheel on some of the hills now without changing down. I have also got to 81 kg which I haven't been for a very long time. The best thing is about this diet is I don't feel so hungry. I also notice that some of the ice cream...

Hey... I just bought some ceramic pulleys to go with the RWC Ceramic BB. Summer will be a breeze for sure! I got them in yellow to go with the Vendetta. I had a great ride today but dinged my leg going up a bridge when changing down. Guess the next big thing on my list is a Di2 upgrade.

I live in a very rural area. Lots of crops are sprayed with all sorts of stuff. Mostly liquid s**t but the other day I could smell fish. I think they do use a certain type of seaweed too. The bit I don't like is pesticide ... If they are spraying that then I try to hold my breath. Sometimes...

Spot the odd bike out... it's a DF... why is it in that set of bikes? Was it your father's? :D So I guess the testing will be on hills as well? I know some of those recumbents are just fast on the flats. I remember being zapped by a low racer about a year ago. Nice collection.

Anyone tried cashew nuts in their smoothies? I have been following Larry's suggestion with making cashew milk. The residue I eat with the fruit at lunch time. Very good. I also have been doubling up my plate with tuna steaks and broccoli with carrots. Now that one makes my stomach rumble.

Thanks Lee for posting Dr Esselstyn's presentation. Being in Spain... yep... There is great Olive Oil. Much better than what you get in the bottle in the UK and cheaper too. But what a revelation... "No OIL" and Dr Esselstyn must have repeated that about 10 times. And it was interesting...

TC... Not sure what type of pedals you have. I just changed my cleats for my look pedals to give me a better float and my knees are better for this. I know that many use the speedplay frogs as they are very easy to clip in and out of and have a better float. I have been told that the sram 11...
