Thanks Charles, but I believe it would - plus be "really" bumppy. If you want to come and ride with us, I have an "spare" Vendetta you are more than welcome to use!

Cool Gary - Pretty soon she'll be doing laps with us at Carrier Park! Then onto the last hold-out Gayle. That might be tougher!

I always do, it's the 25+mph to zero sliding ,y bum on the asphalt as my break; that is my main problem!

I resemble that remark - although I haven't got to the "optional" part - but at least to "darnit-darnit-darnit-I can't believe it-AGAIN" , really really loud. Yes - crashing I see as 30 to 0 in 1 second into a non-movable object - I'll pick "controlled sliding" any day over that! I guess we...

Hard to ignore something like this!

Super nice Gary! Hope you made 2 of them! :) So. I guess with the "brain box" - you'll be riding smarter now - and faster too!

I have been able to slightly lift my hands off the bars only for a second or two, so no , on the no-hands. Don't know if I will ever be able to do that. :( I have found however that I do not have to have a death grip on the bar, which helps a lot. Just a nice relaxed touch is about all it needs...

Yes, they took a little getting used to. I probably would not want to ride around the town in heavy traffic, but now I am pretty used to them. They save me about 1kph over the regular drops. Thanks Jon, The track is actually pretty rough. It was last touched in 1999 I think. Lost of cracks and...

That is why we call them "Our better half"!!!

This is from my latest ride at Carrier Park, the track I will hopefully do my outdoor track Century attempt this fall. It is so funny to watch me pedal from the front of the boom looking back. About a 2 minute segment. No power or cadence since my Vector NOT WORKING!! See me pull my water bottle...

My wife tells me this regularly!

btw Bob (or anyone else) - Do you notice that our "veloviewer" signatures do not seem to be updating any longer since Cruzbike upgraded to this new forum engine? Maybe need a new thread.. ??

Excellent! I want to the see the front and back video feeds though - hopefully forth-coming!

What - no electric drive. I don't know if you experience will be the same as mine, but when I moved from the Silvo to the Vendetta, I found that I could not make nearly the raw power due to the reduced hip angle. The is more than made up by the aerodynamics however. And I think in due time 5-10...

Excellent Hamish! A 40K is a hard effort. Much of it is learning how to pace yourself. If you can find a local track (like behind a school), that is also an option. It does take little getting used to speeding around the corners at 40+kph, but there is no traffic and no stopping (unless you run...

Say it ain't so! Nooooooooooooooooooooooo. The Silvio is crying right now I think!

I ordered the shorts and some of those D30 elbow pads. Should be arriving next week But today, I just "taped" myself up with Duck Tape, just in case I fell again. It's not quite Kelvar, but better than nothing in a pinch I figured. and... I did not crash today.. so call it a GOOD day!

Congrats! Waiting for some BIG riding stories from you now!

Thanks for the quote! I don't need metal legs - just metal skin! :) Ordered a pair those shorts that ratz has - should get them next week. Also thinking about just making a small little "skid pad" off to the left near the bottom of the seat. Envision something like a little "ski-runner" or...

Adult Beverage? - Like Perpetuem, Infinit, chocolate mike (oops - that one's not adult - but I drink it anyway), other, ??? ??? - over my head - perhaps you posted to the wrong thread?? - or I am just "lost"??
