Maybe one year they will actually switch to timing chips too, them maybe I'll ride in it! That stopping to punch a card is ridiculous.... :(

In one word - YES! - but it's all "top secret" right now.;)

I got some leg extensions and need 3" more now.... That pretty much sums it up. :) You can email me at larryoslund@gmail.com if you have one or know someone who does....

That was good Joe - probably the best of the year so far! :)

Don't forget #4: Have someone else ride with your number on them! :)

NO, but this posting does have a phone number ((623) 974-5963 for Don/Mary) and email that you can reply to. I usually feel pretty good if I can call someone on the phone and talk to them about something they are selling. If they can then give some detailed pictures of the item and send to my...

Brakes - one of those necessary "evils" I guess - they slow you down - or are supposed to. (track bikes are nice because the brakes "built" into the cranks!) I hardly ever use mine - I find if I just lay over and slide on my "armor" I can stop much faster! :rolleyes:o_O:p;)

Helmet - Definitely! - IMHO: You can whack your head against the pavement just as hard going slow as you can going fast - your still falling the same distance vertically no matter what the speed. .. and gloves for sure (full ones if have them). You will automatically put your hands down to...

Yeah - It kind of makes you wonder - or cringe a little if you wonder to long... :eek:

Sorry to hear than slim - get well soon and do your exercises!

Kline, great photos! Me thinks you should get the top bar powder coated "YELLOW". Hmm- not sure where I've seen that before, but I think it would look great! .. just saying!

Jon lives in Australia - so it summer their! - lucky guy!

An hour later, done! Now I can at least ride up and down the driveway.;) Maybe practice my 2 second intervals. They are forecasting near 60 F for next Saturday. Gotta love winter in NC... Of course now the neighbor is made at me because his wife wants him to shovel his driveway too.

Nice bike - so what does your husband ride? Once (if ever) he learns to keep up then you can upgrade to some clip-less pedals. You will find an increase in control if not speed as well. Safe riding!

Nice write up - let's see some pictures! I looked at some of the KOM's for this ride. Some pretty serious pros out there too - turning in times of around 3:25 for the 145K Saw Lars Boom - averaged 378watts for 3 1/2 hours! wow, but still only averaged around 25pmh. He must be a big guy...

Well spoken by someone who works from home! We'll be lucky to get out of our neighborhood by Monday - We live on a private road of a "never" plowed secondary. I'm set up to work from home via VPN (had to on Friday and Saturday) , so probably will on Monday too if I have to. Yeah right - haha...

My Garmin Pedals are configurable with cranks down to 110mm. There are known problems with Q-rings and crank or pedal based power meters - i.e. not reporting exactly the right power - I have confirmed this in testing. It's not much - just a few %, but it is consistent. My X-seam is about 40.5"...

This is my front yard - It has been snowing now for about 2 days. Everything is pretty much closed down around here right now.. Of course I just had to be able to say that I "braved" the 20 degree elements in my biking shorts only - Yes I do have them on. My wife made sure of that - she...

What Joe said. I ride 140mm cranks now and have ridden many successful races and rides with them over the past year. T me it's all about sizing your crank to your leg length so you do not have too severe a knee bend on the back stroke. IMHO - that is what saves your knees all that pain!

Yes it would, and of course the lack of air! Man, I hate it when I get all those little bottles of "secret stuff" misS-labeled!
