    The Tribe is amazing - Thanks everyone, for your encouragement and your funding. Your response literally brings tears to my eyes! I'm hoping to set up some kind of live gps tracker so you want to watch me live on your pc or smart phone if you want. Stay tuned - hunting for tickets now.. :)

    Of course SuperSlim! If you have pay-pal, just send it to my email larryoslund@gmail.com (and remember to send as friend, so they don't charge me any fees). I think pay-pal will do whatever monetary conversion is necessary. Thanks!

    Emmitt Smith Grand Fondo Century on 9/17/2016 - Results

    Hello Tribe, I have just been informed by the race director for this event that recumbents are welcome to ride. Event info: http://www.emmittsmithgranfondo.com/event-info.html That is great news from an event that is following basic UCI rules. Due to be recently unemployed, I am financially...

    Little tweaks

    Great price, but only issue is that the shortest crank length is 165mm, which leaves out a lot of us on recumbents who have found the benefits to shorter crank lengths.

    White Mountain Double Century and Final Race for the CA Triple Crown Stage Race

    I did receive a personal email from the race director that said I could ride. From their website: UCI Road competition that apply will be enforced. To review UCI Road competition guidelines click here. This really only says that UCI Road competition rules apply, not "all" UCI rules and...

    $10,000 prize race for a cause-Emmitt Smith Grand Fondo

    I quickly scanned through the 171 pages of the "UCI Road Race" document that the web page referred to. (that was fun - NOT!) From what I could tell there was no mention of bicycle types that were allowed or disallowed in this section (probably because it is covered in a different document way up...

    Falling over

    I fall over at high speed, so you are ahead of me! :eek::D Seriously though, I think practicing 3 things will help you: (1) - Practice clipping out really quickly. Just sit on your bike with it stationary in some way - just clip in and out and practice doing it really fast. (2) - When coming up...

    Little tweaks

    Yes any pedal based power system will give you cadence. I've got Garmin, and Bob has PT. I think PT is a better choice.

    $10,000 prize race for a cause-Emmitt Smith Grand Fondo

    I would be cool if someone like "Jason" would just show up and ride the ride and slaughter everyone. Even if they didn't let him register, the roads are public roads and they can't really stop you from riding on them. Just let me take off, and about a minute later, just come up to them on the...

    2016 Savannah Labor Day Weekend Century ride report

    Steve. I truly have no secrets from this tribe - and share everything I do and try - successes and failures. Yes I do have my own Infinit formula, but it is not low carb. I have not checked it in a while or have changed it because of the Low Carb diet. I think I have extra flavor and try and...

    Nice - a real beauty! I also really like the extra large steering dampener - looks like it doubles as a seat belt! Happy riding!
