    virtual ride in place of all of my cancelled rides - please participate

    @3bs On the Donate page I see choices for Team Kalamari with (Phil (you), Rudy, or Kevin). I am going to select the Team Kalamari (Phil). Let me know if I should be doing something else based on my plan to ride and give a donation. (I highly respect the cause but fundraising is not my forte...

    WTRL TTT July 30 spot needed for B cat

    Hi all TTT racers (especially @trplay, @RojoRacing, @Pollock, @LarryOz and other ttt people) I usually race with the Herd of Killer Bees. And just last week got my friend to ride with us for the first time. Unfortunately he missed the sign up this week and they have a full 8 riders. So does...

    I'm getting a Vendetta!!!

    Hey @DocS, I hope those new brake pads slow you down - wouldn’t want the breaks to get you busted up. :eek:

    Cruzbike Time Trial Challenge 2020

    So legs like tree trunks... I can usually outpace a single tree but when there are two or more on a bike / rider then I just branch off to a new trail and leaf the competition to others.

    Silvio S30 for sale

    Hi @GeneG, The bike pictured is a Silvio but not S30 as evidenced by the circular hole in the rear structural triangle. It would remove possible confusion if you could remove “s30” from the title and first post. Reference: from...

    T50 vs. Q45 ride quality?

    I agree with the esteemed Mr. Holler. Q is much more plush. Big tires are fine and do an excellent job but the rear suspension on the QX100 that I have takes away the jarring. (Depending on the purpose of my ride I do choose my non-suspended kit-bike- for example for the Cruzbike TT. ) Note...

    Truth be told females can ride (even if you have no room with Team Low Drag) if they don’t mind a coed learning environment. We Killer Bees have two queens and 4-6 drones most weeks. (No comments are necessary about the usefulness of drones - we really do pull our weight, really.)

    Two Questions

    If your current chain can shift into large chain ring to large sprocket gear (you wouldn’t normally use this gear but you don’t want to break the chain by shifting to that gear accidentally) then you can count the number of links and you will know definitely. Sometimes it is helpful to mark one...

    That’s the only training required: how to use the electronic devices. The rest will be on the job coaching by folks like @trplay.

    vendetta front triangle for sale

    This is an unusual item - a front triangle without a frame - I haven’t seen one for sale in the 5 years I have been on the forum. Usually it is a whole bike, sometimes a frame-set which would include the front triangle and seat. You will occasionally see different sized chain stays, seat pads...

    Cruzbike Sofrider $500

    I see you've made good use of electrician's zip ties (tape for those who don't work with electricians daily!). A good way to learn Cruzbike for sure.
