Way to go Jeffrey! I am very exited for you. You are just going to love the V! I can't believe it has now almost been an entire week since the 24 hour race. My shoulder is still quite sore (Of course it would help if I would stop slipping on all this ice and re-injurying it!) With my...

Thanks Matej and Rick Bike is mostly OK - still have not had a chance to go over with a fine tooth comb, partly because just hard to put on a jacket, let alone work on the bike. I am able to ride in on the KICKR, so know the RD is ok from the fall! I think my rear RENN wheel is ruined...

Bob - Can you rename this thread: Cruzbiker's excellent adventure. I certainly do not deserve to have my name it the title - It was more a total Cruzbike effort and updates really anyway! That being said - It would have been so cool to have all the Cruzbikes riding in a drafting group on...

Yeah Eric - It was a little boring on the first 100 mile loop, and I knew Charlie was back there, so I tried to get a shot with both of us in it! I was also recording on my VIRB when I went down at the turnaround. (Yes the sand!) - will post that later when compiled. Of course I wanted to...

Brief update of my crash I did crash while on my 3rd to last lap, not fall asleep I had picked up the pace and wanted to make 3 more laps in under 35 minutes, which I new I could do from the power and speed standpoint. Problem for me was the bad lighting on the racetrack and just not knowing...

That scooter is for Gary to That scooter is for Gary to buzz around the infield to support me in case of desperate need at night. That would be just about anything at that hour! Ben Tomlin is also riding g a yellow V.

Eric, someone's gotta be out there Out front that is! Haha ;) Seriously, I am going to try extremely hard to resist that temptation! Going to try to stay at a certain wattage for entire race if possible. Thanks for all the tips and hints. It's just past 8am now, and Gary and I are about an...

Look's great Bob... Only Look's great Bob... Only thing for me is that new Cruzbike logo kind of lulls me to sleep - not sure why. :) Maybe it will have the same affect on whomever you are competing against.. who knows..

Colder and Colder... Every day the forecast gets worse and worse for Sebring. Now it is showing low of 34 degrees for the start, high only of 66, with winds at 16mph - gusting to 33, then low than night of 43 with winds at 10 mph, gusting to 22.. Wind chill obviously below zero, especially if...

Live feed - Strava - garmin ?? I was going to try and set up a live feed for anyone interested in following my activity live. My Garmin Connect on my Smart phone says it will work, but so far it does not. Calling support today. Does Strava have that feature? .. or RWGP ?.. I know MMR...

Bob, I guess you are having a Bob, I guess you are having a heat-wave up there. Our current forecast for Asheville NC is 3 degrees F Sat night -Sun Morn. They just keep predicting it lower and lower each day!

Thanks Jerry! Rick, I know Ben Thomlin is going be there - He ride's a V, but I don't see him on this forum much. He does post and belong to the Cruzbike Strava club, so you have probably seen him. I also know Jim and Maria are planning to be there as well as Charlie O. Other than that...

Thanks Eric, That's why I am Thanks Eric, That's why I am taking all my different wheel sets with me. The 88mm rims that say Cruzbike I like the best. They don't actually seem to be any slower than the full discs really - although I have not really testing everything in a non-windy location...

Thanks Gary for the spy shots I have been doing some test with various combinations of wheels to try and see which ones performed the best. But with the wind being so strong and pretty gusty, the results where all over the board. Each test was done for 5 minutes on a oval track. I did about...

Heck, forget the bottle, just water the road as you go by.... :) ... It is amazing how a full bladder can make you so uncomfortable! I have been experimenting with condom cathedars for my upcoming 24 hour at Sebring. They seem to work pretty good, but man........ are they "painful"...

yes, GXP XD-15 works well for me... but I have SRAM GXP crankset to go with it, not sure about This is what you want if the GXP works for you, probably can't get much better! http://www.enduroforkseals.com/id225.html I found this, but haven't had a chance to really dissect it...

how about....lets raise the stakes: CB owners WINNING at Sebring get the new goodies!!! haha :)

My 2 cents Hi Ivan, All the comments that I have seen are really good, so I will not duplicate them. As only been riding Cruzbike since last June, I am a novice compared to everyone else that has replied, so I will also just give you my impressions for your training since I have also been...

I must admit, it sure is an obnoxious THING!! ... but if it helps me go faster and farther, then I'll put up with it.
