    Testing week in Asheville, NC June 25 - July 1

    Spot the odd bike out... it's a DF... why is it in that set of bikes? Was it your father's? :D So I guess the testing will be on hills as well? I know some of those recumbents are just fast on the flats. I remember being zapped by a low racer about a year ago. Nice collection.

    Diet: Low Carb and Ultra Cycling

    Anyone tried cashew nuts in their smoothies? I have been following Larry's suggestion with making cashew milk. The residue I eat with the fruit at lunch time. Very good. I also have been doubling up my plate with tuna steaks and broccoli with carrots. Now that one makes my stomach rumble.

    Diet: Vegan Lifestyle

    Thanks Lee for posting Dr Esselstyn's presentation. Being in Spain... yep... There is great Olive Oil. Much better than what you get in the bottle in the UK and cheaper too. But what a revelation... "No OIL" and Dr Esselstyn must have repeated that about 10 times. And it was interesting...

    V20 to Sweden

    TC... Not sure what type of pedals you have. I just changed my cleats for my look pedals to give me a better float and my knees are better for this. I know that many use the speedplay frogs as they are very easy to clip in and out of and have a better float. I have been told that the sram 11...

    Silvio S 30 Thailand

    I am in the south of Spain and regularly in the summer it's 40+. The good thing about cooling your arms is that it does effectively help regulate your core temperature. It's only the 22nd of May and at midnight tonight it's 28c. I am pretty sure it's going to be a hot year for sure. So it's...

    Silvio S 30 Thailand

    I use the Sugoi arm cooling sleeves that are really good. Just add a little water and hey presto you don't overcook

    Has anyone tried a bottle of this stuff on their morning ride? http://nextshark.com/5-reasons-why-everyone-is-putting-butter-in-their-coffee/ Could this be Maria's secret?

    Diet: Low Carb and Ultra Cycling

    I'll second it, it's nearly 2am. I have a friggin tough time today on a very heavy bike. I am resilient as ever but hungry. On the via verde today it was as hot as hell. Thank God I had those salted almonds in my pocket and lots of water. What a diet. It's incredible isn't it! I would love to...

    What did you discovered about your Cruzbike today

    Rather you than me. You did well to stay on. 53 is my top speed on the flat and the thought of bunny hopping at that speed is a remarkable achievement

    Shine on you crazy diamond

    Love the music in the production "the night stalker". Was it a home brew as Shazam doesn't tell me?

    Heavy breathing

    it has been proven that the quickest way to lose weight is to breath more. If you are relaxing too much you forget to breath. When you are burning fat ... the exhaust is water. You either pee it or exhale thru your lungs. So sport is a great way of losing weight because it gets you hotter, your...

    Diet: Low Carb and Ultra Cycling

    Incredible, three PBs on strava segments today. I feel great. Did 80 rpm down the hill before coasting. Holy mackerel... And today I found a discounted medium cycle top for 15 euros and it fits. So I bought it! I have never got into a medium before. It's perfect. Really happy with the diet...

    2016 Calvin's Challenge video

    Oddly enough I watched it twice... Very good. So why did Billy's the rocket accelerated better out of the corners, was it because he had two chain wheels?

    Stolen Silvio

    Sorry... What version was it and what was the serial number and state that it was stolen in? I have some free time next week to scan adds. The Vendetta and Silvio are both highly desirable but somewhat difficult to ride.

    what to wear?

    This had me screaming with laughter. I probably wear them if touring the Alps but it looks rediculous to pop into a tavern for a tapa.
