    Silvio seat

    Interestingly I've found the thinner standard Ventisit pad to be more comfortable than the thick one. The thin one has molded itself to the shape of my body; the thick one has not and remains less comfortable. Didn't really see that one coming. Thin is on Silvio, thick is on Vendetta.

    Assuming you sync directly to Strava and not via another service; then Change your recording device to source elevation from GPS then they will be default use their DEM elevation model data. If you are using a RFLKT+ on an iphone your probably better off using Wahoo Fitness app (free)...

    Need a Silvio right brifter

    My guess is that this will solve you problem http://shop.lizardskins.com/collections/featured-homepage-products/products/dsp-3-2mm-bar-tape The 3.2 stuff is really really thick. Twice as thick as the 1.8 stuff I use for my Piano Hands. And yes it's worth that cost.

    Assault on Mt. Mitchell - 2015

    It'll come; last summer Mrs Ratz tired at 25 miles wiped out by a 52 miler. This spring finished a metric century and was muttering that the ride was too short.

    +1 to this. As a member of the cruzbike strava club, and the curator of the srr (strava recumbent riders) club I can assure you we have nothing competitive going on in our groups; just a lot of encouragement for rides well done. About the only gruff I give people is boring ride names; you want...

    Club rides

    It comes rather easy after a while. I can cruize down our twisty wood trails without any problem on the Silvio. This video was shot on those trails, although not from a Silvio this was on a quest. but I will ride these trails on the Silvio without issue with my kids or to ride to starbucks...

    Assault on Mt. Mitchell - 2015

    Least it be lost in the telling. Larry road the darn climb 8 days ago; just to make sure his gearing was good enough to make it. move that out to say 14 days before; and it might have been a sprint finish. Congrats to all. Besides having multiple different people take home first place means...

    Assault on Mt. Mitchell - 2015

    Update from Larry on the bus ride back down. "Hello everyone,I finished (103 miles) in 6th 40 mins. It was a bad day for me. I am ok, did not wreck or anything, I just did not have very much energy, could not generate normal power when the big hills started (like I bonked or something) and did...
