    Shoot me and put me out of my MISERY!

    Thanks all! I can't wait until I can do a century on a track during the day! Joe - I am sorry, I do not know what that means. Something to do with "terminator" movie? I did not see it, so it might be lost on me! :)

    Shoot me and put me out of my MISERY!

    Yeah Lief - It seems like I should be really good at it by now - both sliding, and healing. I just need to learn to levitate myself up off the V when going down. I am really praying for "no more". I think I should have hit my "quota" by now.

    Shoot me and put me out of my MISERY!

    Can't believe it! My intent was to ride a "recovery century". i.e. A century at my "recovery" power of about 155 watts. I had a dentist appointment at 8:30am, so I got up at 3:30am and went to the track I usually ride on. Took my "Sebring" light with me. Darkness, 100% humidity with fog, and...

    HPV races at Northbrook Velodrome

    Well, if you remember, I did all this testing on my V with all the different Q-rings and round rings, and I came to the conclusion that since I am spinning in excess of 100rpm all the time, that the Q-rings are not really benefiting me. In addition, the Garmin Vector Pedals do not seem to be...

    He Jon, Yes - I used round rings Fairing guys are way faster. Sean Costin on his No-Com with streamliner shell rode 35.195 miles in an hour .. Yes, the power meter thing is frustrating - it will work itself out I am sure. Glad to hear that both of yours match.

    Aero Wheel-sets for sale - SOLD

    Hi Bob, I might be interested in your #1 set. I am thinking of just having a nice "training" set that I can try out the Tannus solid tires on. What is the "inside" width of these rims? Larry

    HPV races at Northbrook Velodrome

    OK - More videos from Northbrook: You can tell I am not really a sprinter, but I gave it my best shot! The 1 Kilometer Time Trial: Here is my video of the 1 hour TT at Northbrook. This was pretty funny (ood). About 2 minutes before the end: They never gave us the "white" flag: telling us...

    HPV races at Northbrook Velodrome

    Slim- Yes - I have been complaining about these pedals reading low for some time. Back when I got them, then seemed to match the KICKR really well. I have read other posts of people claiming the same thing. at least 20-30 watts lower than stages, etc. I know there is a rather "cumbersome"...

    HPV races at Northbrook Velodrome

    Thanks everyone! Here is the next video: 200M sprint - flying start - not my best moment - but I will be the first to admit I am not a sprinter!

    HPV races at Northbrook Velodrome

    Thanks Alan - Something is either wrong with my heart, or my HR monitor. When it was showing 221, it did not feel that high. If I look the data (https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/844515146) you can see where it "suddenly" goes way up, then back down again. Several times actually. So -...

    Thursday Night A Ride: Lowrider Unchained (July 23, 2015)

    Great video Joe - so you do let them win sometimes. That's good, because if you win everything all the time, they eventually won't play with you anymore! :) Keep up the "V" work!

    Di2 Vendetta V2.0 for sale - 11 spd, Stages power meter, 165mm cranks, Q-rings

    oumed - Do you know what chainstay length you have. From the pics it looks quite long, so I think you may have the large. sofriderguy - I am 5'7" and I fit a medium V2.2 frame. Once oumed gets back to us with his chainstay measurement, I will measure mine and compare. I'm sure there is someone...

    Silvio transport

    I have the Sportwing also. It is inexpensive, very light weight and can be broken down quickly and does not take up any room in your truck either! It will carry 2 bikes. I think they also have a 4-bike version available.

    Joe's New Tires

    I do not have any really good comparative data, but I have had a set of latex tubes in my Conti G2S's for almost the entire year. It is the set of wheels that I have raced almost all my races on. They have lasted just about as long as the tires, which are due for replacement soon.
