    Cruzbike RAAM 2017 4-person Team

    Team Cruzbike should issue a challenge to John and Jacquie - it would be cool if they put together a team too and we raced head-to-head!!!

    2016 Mid-Atl Century reports and videos

    I finally downloaded and processed my first video from today's race. It is only the last 5 minutes of the race and from the front camera view, but definitely the most exciting part! The rear facing video view is even better, as it shows everyone trying to chase me as I passed them - I hope to...

    Getting Off the Fence

    I have the Di2 upgrade: the aero version that has the aero-brakes with the little button on the side for shifting and it has been working very nice for me for almost 2 years. I also just got a the aero version of SRAM eTap, (which Ratz also has on his V20's), but have not installed or tested...

    Getting Off the Fence

    Getbent: I have had both a Silvio and a Vendetta, and currently ride a Vendetta V20. It is so fast it is scary and truthfully it is so fast that I don't even have to ride hard to keep up with the A group rides where I live. I can embarrass them anytime I want, but usually don't until the very...

    Your Max Speed on a Cruzbike

    Jason: For these to be verified & certified, we are going to need some video I think! haha Be safe out there (Due to all the slides I've taken, I just don't seem to have the "heart" or desire to see how fast I can go anymore - Maybe I'm just getting old - or don't feel invincible anymore like I...

    Recumbent Newbie

    Great job on the build - Looks so much like a Vendetta that it could pass for an early prototype!

    Core temperature

    You can fix just about anything temporarily with zip-ties and duct tape!

    Core temperature

    Most of us can relate - changing the front tire is no picnic. My worse experience was kind of "opposite" of yours at least from the "heat index" aspect. It happened to me a on an extremely "cold and rainy" day. I actually got to flats that day - I was about ready to scream - and throw the bike...

    I'll just hop that curb!

    Bummer Joe - Hope you and your bat-mobile are ok now! I won't try that since you did - I mostly like sliding down the road on my butt! :)

    Riding with DF groups

    I decided to take a step on the "wild side" and go join the regular Tuesday night group ride that is about a 20 minute drive away from my house. I was told they leave promptly at 6pm, and ride a 26 mile loop, and that the "fast group" does it in about an hour. I was also told about 60 cyclists...

    Visibility Flags

    It just points out to the guys on the DF's that you are so fast that you can even pull a couple flags and still whiz by them!

    Bruce scores 2 Cruzbikes

    I guess he learned it was better to watch from the basket than dangle from the leash! Smart dog.

    The Road to 500 miles in 24hrs

    Oh yeah - and my favorite one: Are you disabled, since you have to ride this thing? ... and then they ride with you and see you are clearly NOT disabled - but instead, they are!

    The Road to 500 miles in 24hrs

    Yep - There's time to slow down and smell the roses, and there's time to put the hammer down! Variety is the spice of life - and of course it's always good to know you can "put the hammer down!" Keep healing. :) .. Sure wish some of us where not so far away from the others - It would be really...

    The Road to 500 miles in 24hrs

    .. Step #2 is the challenge. I average 23.5 yesterday for 100 miles with 5K climbing which means I was hammering hard most of the time. I came upon quite a few riders, but most where going <18, so most I could do was slow down, say hi, and then take back off. There is a group ride on Tuesdays...

    Hawkeye Downs HPRA Weekend 2016

    Things needed; nothing you don't already have or use: Helmet with certification sticker they can see left, right mirrors (handlebar or hand mounted) working front and rear brakes tires with air. There is a quick "safety" inspection before the races that you must go through and pass - they will...

    The Road to 500 miles in 24hrs

    Sounds like a great plan Jason! btw - I actually rode a century on real roads in my area for the first time in a long time. I was alone, so that wasn't too much fun, but I did it, and it was great - and of course better than riding around a velodrome 300 times, or a track 400 times!

    GONE --- QX100 "never used" - $1195 - Sanford, FL

    Lief, If you are serious, you should probably email or call Ben directly - I don't think he visits this forum very often. (although - he could prove me wrong!)
