    HPV World Championship in Austria

    It's interesting to see Alain's arm positions. Certainly not straight arm positioning and nice and relaxed even at that speed. Amazing

    V20c Build Diary 2023 edition.

    I'm always incredibly impressed by your presentations and food for thought. And there was me thinking if I get one of these new frames I would just give it a coating of protection car spray ceramico!

    Paris-Brest-Paris 2023?

    Unfortunately , pain can be exhausting to say the least. I remember reading @Tor Hovland approach to PBP. He paced it until the end but one stop and then went max. I find that if I am horizontal I don't digest food like I am on a road bike... unfortunately everything comes into play with such an...

    Paris-Brest-Paris 2023?

    @Derek "They all made the connection that this person must be disabled" That's just your interpretation. In fact they are to support the valiant to give them encouragement. ... and you know that. I think it's amazing that you travelled half way around the world and trained to do this. You are...

    I never look back, darling. It distracts from the now, A V20c design journal

    I have just been looking at what the latest crit riders are riding. Sram 52/10 for sprinting. I have nag at the back of my head. I have some pbs that I still have not cracked from 2016 when I had a rotor 54t Q ring and 165mm shimano cranks. I am 5kilos over weight and 11 seconds off that...

    Opening up Pandoras Box

    I love the Vendetta... I regard it as a race horse on steroids. Here's the thing. As usual it's a tradeoff. Engineering is a science of compromise. If you have the money , you can go for a Rolls Royce Solution. Is it worth flashing the cash and buy a sram Eagle axs cassette or stick with...

    HPV World Championship in Austria

    Anyone can enter but you need a doctors certificate to say that you are up for it. That hill climb looks almost impossible. How on earth do you train for something like that?

    Paris-Brest-Paris 2023?

    I got a softbag for trains but sure wouldn't want to put it on a flight. Maybe , if you encased it in bubble wrap and wrapped it, it could work. You can't go wrong with a carbon hardcase like the one @LarryOz uses.

    State of the Cruzbike Nation

    No kidding, but when you get in the 9% it's more important to practice being mobile , balance, low c of g and active. That's what cruzbikes give. I spent an hour last night researching innersoles. It's a very personal subject. Some people spend over $100 for a pair. I think it depends on the...

    Little tweaks

    I have just completed an update. Just like @Frito Bandito , I am running force axs drivechain. But unlike frito I was using a shimano ultegra 11 speed rear deuralleur with the xshifter and it was OK with 12 gears but the pully system was too shallow so anytime you wanted power the chain would...

    Wondering about the fastest, while wide-range, drivetrain

    I am going to replace the brake cables pretty soon , I also want to swap out the brake levers as it was only a proof of concept. Sram do some pretty good aero tt brake levers that could be a good buy. The disk brake pads ought to be swapped out for something better too. The heat this year is...
