    It is official. New UMCA records for Cruzbike

    Congrats Larry! So the UMCA are considerably less annoyed by Larry than the UCI were by Faure. Yes, a really flat seat, and the handlebars are right in your guts. Must be difficult getting on and off.

    Helmet for Casual, Everyday Riding: Yes or No?

    I bought one for the BHPC race that I did. Never wore one before or since. Starting to be persuaded by terrible stories. Sorry to hear about Doug. As Suz says, what a shock. As for going over the bars, I think the closest any of us have come is an involuntary stoppie. You end up standing...

    Looking for Purchasing Advice

    Buy a bike from these people. First, I got a conversion kit. When I discovered this MBB lark worked, I got a Silvio. When it cracked its frame and nearly broke in two, they replaced it. All I had to pay was the the shipping cost. The seat, the bit under the seat, the back triangle - these...

    Wanna go on my bike?

    Maria sent me a email saying someone wants a go on my bike. I would be happy to do this. I think, for some reason Maria did not see the reply I sent.

    Stealing a Cruzbike

    Uncool features, you say? They put it in the back of the van. The wheels with their expensive hubs go on ebay. As do the brakes. The frame goes in the canal.

    Charlotte Motor Speedway (CMS) - 10 mile TT - new recumbent record

    It is within your reach, Larry. What you need is a few more watts, that's what. The only way I could stay ahead of Cruz Merckx ito go on a trainer and watch his video.
