David - don't let this little thing stop you from going! :) It should not be too hard to just build a side guard that matches the Q-rings shape. I will be working on it myself soon. Even if you went totally round and it was a little large that it needed to be, seems like it should work. I guess...

Fantastic - I will be great to have you there too!

Come on over David - you certainly are closer. Then we can have 2 Vendettas!

Based on their profile below: This little route doesn't look too bad. I can eat up anything in 3% range with pretty high speed. The total elevation gain in 12.3Km is only 184M, so not too bad really First "climb" is 2.9Km with rise of only 86M (which is only 2.9% avg grade). The V20 will not...

No Problem Ben, (and others who are interested) Here is my "estimated" expenses - trying to be as cost effective as possible - by staying in a school dormitory - to save lodging $.

Hi all, I suddenly have the opportunity to compete in the World Human Power Vehicle Association's (WHPVA) - World Championship races on July 19-21 in Nandax, France. Due to the high cost of getting there and back with my bike, I could really use some help to cover my expenses. As of this...

Haha Jon - No , but it probably would have been! :eek:

That is a super nice looking MBB Marc! Thanks for you email - replying soon

That is pretty comical! I saw you listed on the credits: which one were you?

I will send you a private message with my thoughts and questions

Thanks Marc: This looks like it would be pretty fun and a wonderful place to showcase the Cruzbike. Wish I knew someone in France near the event that could assist me.

Hi All, The Final Day - We rode from Peaks of Otter to the end of the Blue Ridge Parkway near Wayneboro, VA. The day started cool with a pretty hard 9 mile climb. It was cool and very windy at the top. Then we descended to James River (13 mile descent), then climbed back another 13 miles back up...

Hi All, Wow - a very hard day after riding so hard yesterday. We covered 89 miles and climbed over 8100 vertical feet. We rode from "Meadow of Dan" area to Peaks of Otter today. Since it was so long, we met for breakfast at 6:30 and started our ride a little after 7am. Another beautiful day was...

Day 5 report Hi All, On Day five we rode about 60 miles from Roaring Gap, NC to Meadows of Dan, VA The day started out a little hectic with me locking myself out of my room during our "outside" breakfast together. The door knob was one of those kind that you cannot unlock. We all tried for about...

Proof that riding up and down mountains every day makes you stronger: Data from today's ride:

Hello everyone, Day 4 was a very short day - a rest day really with only 42 miles of riding and 3900' of climbing. I tried to limit my power output today to truly rest up. The next 3 days will be 56, 88, & 89 miles of riding which will be tougher. Today was another stellar day on the Blue Ridge...

The steepness of the climbs is about the same in both directions. Most of the time it is between 5-7%, and rises to maybe 9% for some very short periods. There is very little flat areas, as you are either climbing or descending up here. I believe he slope looks more severe because the graph is...
