    Uh oh...V20 back in stock!

    Get some soccer shorts with hips pads - they are cheaper and lighter. Mirrors - I bought these hand mirror on amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000TCGD96/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 They work great and do not take up any handlebar space (which is good since I don't have...

    The Road to 500 miles in 24hrs

    I'm really looking forward to your initial assessment of it and how the different settings "feel" to you.

    Q ring upgrade - Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh......

    Wow - that would be quite a workout - and I think you have a really good idea here to follow. I'll have to ponder if riding that hard in the first set would negatively affect the second set due to fatigue. There also might be another way to test what you have proposed Slim - stay tuned...

    Q ring upgrade - Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh......

    I think you'll get that, and you've got time to experiment with the different OCP settings to see which one feels best. Good luck.

    Q ring upgrade - Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh......

    I have a "reg-Q" 52, and an QXL - 53. The way I read the instructions I thought the OCP #1 was for best "flat terrain" riding in steady state. That is what I basically have ridden in both of the large rings. I then mount the "smaller" rings on the OCP #5 for the better climbing aspect. I...

    Q ring upgrade - Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh......

    Not sure what you are referring to Jason (with the 2 and 3 set hole spacing), but I have seen a couple "different" versions of the Q-rings. I think it is just what is cut out. As long as it is "true" 110BCD, then you are going to be OK. There will still be a lot of "extra" holes for the correct...

    Chain WAXing (yes it's that easy) - and other mysteries of this art!

    Portland Cruzbike retreat

    Wow - That's some stock in Q-rings there! I just finished my 2 hour Wed workout on the KICKR and am at work now. Will go home today and take off my cranks, Q-rings and Vector pedals to pack with my other essentials like shoes, shorts, jersey's, etc. Maybe if I take this Jersey to ride Ratz's...

    Mid-Atlantic 12/24 - August 20, 2016

    Practice on you trainer Jason - that way you won't fall - then just do the same on the open road (works me for!):eek: I know you play the video games while on the trainer - maybe you just need to take a controller with you when you ride outdoors and you won't need to touch the handlebars much. ;):D

    Mid-Atlantic 12/24 - August 20, 2016

    Way to go Doug - I'll be there, but will be defending my Century Title, so no 12 or 24 for me. I know you will do great and look forward to seeing you again. As far as a death grip goes with you hands. What has helped me was to just keep ever so slightly less and less "grip" on the bars. Try...

    Testing week in Asheville, NC June 25 - July 1

    Just for fun, I stuck the Arrowhead's 650 wheel on the back of the Vendetta, so lighter and a little lower seat angle. My speed actually dropped by about 1/2 mph.

    Morciglio Arrowhead testing results This Morciglio Arrowhead is a custom made CF-RWD recumbent made by John Morciglio. This was his personal bike and I purchased it directly from him. To the best of my knowledge, he has not made another one of these yet, so another one-of-a-kind for now...
