    Your The Texas Time Trial Primer

    Just watched Larry's video. Heck it looked like you were riding on ice. The bike just flipped. @LarryOz : Have you thought about mounting some air bags on that bike?

    Sometimes my life is like a "Lexus" commercial

    Drop the bike by 2 degrees and change the seat. If I had huge amounts of cash that is what I would do. However there is no such thing as perfection. We all know one race is different to another. So aero for the flats and something else for the hills. A quote. "Perfection is the acceptance of...

    Sometimes my life is like a "Lexus" commercial

    He's been over so many times perhaps it's time to invest in a MIPS one.

    S40 Dream Build

    I too am waiting for xshifter. From what I have read I think the s40 can take even bigger tires than 28mm. Xshifter is getting to market soon. I have been drooling all summer with drop chain symptoms. As soon as xshifter arrives the front mesh goes on. Can't wait :cruzbike::cruzbike::cruzbike:

    V20 female riders

    I thought Ms. Daisy had your V20... wow you got it back?

    Helmet (Brain Bucket Options)

    Here is a thought of creation. A v20 fixie with one of these on the rear wheel. You would probably want a full facial helmet to go with it plus a bit of body armor. http://www.cytronex.com/

    Helmet (Brain Bucket Options)

    It's certainly not for the faint hearted. Probably easier to do a track stop ... heck that could be cool on a v20 :eek:

    Helmet (Brain Bucket Options)

    I am quite simply stunned. Just back from Paris. Walked for days on end. So many monuments. No recumbent. Lots of cobblestone road. There seems to be a new elite that like to bike on a fixie without a helmet with wafer thin carbon wheels. The traffic is crazy too. Quite surprised. But now I...

    Panniers

    The article is "Moose Pocket". The original to what I referred to has been delisted but there is an even better example written on this post. www.cruzbike.com/forum/threads/what-did-you-do-to-your-cruzbike-today.10945/page-7#post-122554

    Panniers

    I quite like Hardy's use of guncovers for PBP. That got them running for cover

    Do Cruzbike racers deserve a shot at the “overall” podium?

    There is only one winner the rest are failures. You only win in life from learning from your failures. There was a sports psychology book I was recommended in reading on one of these forums. I will try to find it when I get back from Paris.

    The 'V' has arrived!

    Now you got into clips... you can try one foot cycling. You can use the other for balance. This is "The stay out of jail" card. It's saved me many times. You might have a puncture... you might be going slow behind a car. Use it whenever you are unsure and not stable.

    Cruzbike Vendetta V20

    There is a mega coastal road in Andalucia and will certainly haul my Vendetta to try that. Its awsome. You feel kind of funny just looking over the cliff. Imagine going down that at 80kph. It would be a lifetime experience for sure. :eek::D

    2018 V20 Coming Down the Line

    If it's possible... how does a cruzbike ambassador gets a set of Boyd wheels :rolleyes: ?

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

    Oh my.... now I don't even need to heat the wax! (I will though because I bought enough wax to last me years. But this stuff below looks really cool) CeramicSpeed’s new UFO Drip chain coating is supposedly the fastest available – despite becoming solid on the chain http://flip.it/z5veK1

    It is official. New UMCA records for Cruzbike

    I wonder what his heart rate is... let's see if posted on strava 158bpm average topping at 167 so it certainly wasn't a walk in the park. Great effort. I love how Larry put that bike together too. :cool: :cruzbike::cruzbike::cruzbike::rolleyes:

    It is official. New UMCA records for Cruzbike

    Congrats. Guess you can do it again with the Giro MIPS Vanquish and beat your old record. Apparently it's ventilation is better and doesn't fog up. I read your write up too. It's quite a team effort to take that record so congrats to your crew.

    Helmet (Brain Bucket Options)

    That's a great video. In the past two years I have come off the bike 3 times. So it's good to have safety as a first even if it's going to cost a premium.

    First rides on my V - well happy.

    I know... I have on my mtb but not on my road. I am blessed with dry weather and the thought of the fiddly changeover isn't quite my ambition. I have an injury and resting up. Otherwise I get tendonitis and then it's really irritating. I still have some flat Strava segments to battle out so...
