    Bike In Bleckley 2017

    I do have a belly - Haven't you seen my gnome likeness? I just cannot seem to get rid of it - I think I just like those donuts too much. It is really hard to suffer down that last 10-15 pounds needed to really get "Jason" or "Jim" thin. I just don't think I have it in me. But maybe the RAAM diet...

    What a great looking day! Extremely jealous - as I am sitting here on my coach eating donuts.. :)

    Join or renew UMCA membership - Grace period announced

    I would like to encourage anyone who is planning on riding in at least one distance event (or would like to attempt ANY record) this year to join the Ultra Marathon Cycling Association (UMCA) This will not only help the Cruzbike by having more riders listed in the results, but it will also help...

    2017 Race and Event Season

    It is a pretty fun ride. I may be riding in it, but it depends when I have to leave for RAAM.

    A Sebring Beginner

    Great ride report Tanya! You did fantastic for your first time. (Of course - now that makes you an expert) I'm still trying to finish mine up! Seems like it takes longer to write it then it does to ride it!

    2017 Race and Event Season

    I wish it was closer and I would be there. Maybe I can email myself there! :) 264 miles. I guess I could just ride there. If I leave tonight at 7 I should just make it for the start!:rolleyes:

    The Road to Sebring, Around Sebring and Back again - Part 1

    .. Yeah - a bunch of "good thing no crash" items. Wait until I post my 11th hour cramps and "soft crash" that will be a hoot to see! :)

    Sebring from my seat

    Great write up Ken. It was so good to meet you. I echo Ratz's statement: The power it took to ride 100 miles in 5:20 on the Quest is huge. You for sure put out more power than I did. Put you on a Vendetta and you will be so fast you will need brakes! :) Every ride, every event is an adventure...

    The Road to Sebring, Around Sebring and Back again - Part 1

    That would have been nice, but no - For some reason there is some "bad blood" in this mixture, much to my amazement! It is sad, there are so few bents out there compared to uprights, you would thing we could band together against that common enemy instead of each other! o_O Makes me sad and...

    The Road to Sebring, Around Sebring and Back again - Part 1

    Just got home last night from my long racing trip around Florida and back. Finally managed to create and upload the Century portion of the 2017 Sebring event. Enjoy it on your long 4 hour training sessions, or sit down in front of the TV with about 6 bowls of popcorn: Hopefully I will finish...

    What I did to prepare for Sebring 2017 ---today

    Renting a Van - I am actually going to be taking 2 maybe 3 bikes, as I have another series of races down in Fort Lauderdale the following weekend, so I will be taking my Morgiclio Arrowhead low-racer. Helmets - If the humidity is low at Sebring, then I might ride with the Casco which is the...

    What I did to prepare for Sebring 2017 ---today

    At 7 am Ratz is just approaching Tallahassee Florida. He has been driving since about 5am yesterday on a little 90 minute nap - How's that for Ultra practice! This leaves him about 5 hours to Sebring. I am pretty sure he is ahead of schedule which should give him plenty of time to get unpacked...

    What I did to prepare for Sebring 2017 ---today

    It looks like Ratz is just south of St. Louis! 900 km down - only 1400 km to go! Go Ratz Go! His average speed have been 92.5kph - and only 49 bpm - Hope he can hold this pace all the way to Sebring! At one point his HR was only 26 - He must have been napping through the snow storm!

    Man - David - you are going to be so fast with that whole setup - have you had a chance to clock some average speeds versus wattage.

    I was wondering how that was working out for you! :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: It doesn't matter how smashing my wife looks (she always looks great to me!), man if I posted a picture of her somewhere - she would be chasing me around the house with a tire iron (and not one for a bicycle tire if...

    What I did to prepare for Sebring 2017 ---today

    I rode a quick little 30 minute workout this morning. Truuli -2. It had 2 little 3 minute intervals at FTP, and 2 x 1 min intervals at whatever you could do. Taper must be working. I feel pretty rested and even was able to hit close to 400watts avg for 60 seconds on the last interval - and I...

    What I did to prepare for Sebring 2017 ---today

    I have the 21oz size - I don't see any reason why you couldn't do it on 70 oz. especially in the 6:30-11am timeframe when you are likely not to need as much fluid replacement from sweat as you might after it heats up: say after 1pm. Long before then you will be on the 11 mile loop anyway and can...

    What I did to prepare for Sebring 2017 ---today

    I am pretty sure there will be at least one Cruzbike car with a couple support people to hand out bottles at the turn around. We will figure that out Friday afternoon. I can usually do 100 miles on on 4 full bottles. I can carry 3 in my setup. I am thinking of guzzling one in the first 3 laps...

    Steering damper/stabilizer

    It is Jason's secret weapon - It makes the V magically defy gravity and climb steep hills effortlessly! I'm gonna get one!
