    what to wear?

    You buy cycling short with no padding, or pull the padding/chamois out of existing. It is not bad unless you sweat a lot, then it soaks it up and you get the equivalent of "diaper rash"!:eek:

    What's on your feet - talking cycle shoes

    The real question is: Does the SOLE contaminate the MOUSE, or does the MOUSE contaminate the SOLE?

    2016 Calvin's Challenge - who's going??

    Joe - I put a metronome app on my smart phone. Then just play it while I am riding outdoors or indoors. I play music too with the metronome in the background. It is a little weird sometimes when they don't match up, but you get used to it. I used my metronome app at Calvin's last year and just...

    Diet: Low Carb and Ultra Cycling

    Hoyden, I had some similar episodes last year, where my heart would rocket up to 230-240'sh range - although I did not have any of the other symptoms you described. I could not even feel it, and had I not had my HR monitor on, I would not even know it had happened. First I thought it was just a...

    Deep Rims

    .. Yes, this was my first ride on my Pro One tubeless, but I did not really notice any difference, when compared to the my other GP4000si with latex or tubular. It was really really windy though, so I will like to redo the testing with no wind. It might revile something I did not notice this...

    My practice ride - video

    Nice riding - I don't think I can do that. Would face plant into one of those cement stops! I really like the bird sounds too!

    Diet: Low Carb and Ultra Cycling

    Everybody is different and has different HR levels. But generally the harder you work the more your body will adapt and the lower your HR will work under load, and at rest. I know a guy that has a 26bpm resting rate, and can ride at 24mph with his heart only beating 106bpm. Amazing! Mine barely...

    Diet: Low Carb and Ultra Cycling

    Another successful (and faster) no-fuel Century. After 4 weeks of eating about 50grams (good) carbs a day, and 16 pounds lighter, I attempted another fuel-less Century to see how my fat adaption has progressed This time I up'd my HR to about 136 to see how I would fair. 2 weeks ago I held my HR...

    Converting Silvio 1.5 to 650B wheels

    My 2 cents: Unless you are fighting for "seconds" off your 20K TT time, I would say it is not worth it. First the tire selection is not as great (and good luck finding a 650 latex tube - I had to make mine). (You could gain a 2+ mph just switching to a Vendetta, so I am guessing it is not about...

    2016 Calvin's Challenge - who's going??

    It part of your aerobic training! How long can you hold your breathe whist putting forth maximum effort. Be careful out there man! You need to be alive for Calvin's in 2 weeks. A 72 year well know cyclist just died this past Friday here on a busy road. It was just a jeep - but it was bigger than...

    All sorts

    Way to go! What Rick said - What Ratz said - What Joe said You need to get yourself a chain tool test whether your chain is stretched.
