    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.

    Diet: Science Based Fueling for Endurance

    I never really had a problem with tolerating Hammer products, but all I used was Perpetuem and it was not for very long. To me the few flavors I tried that even seemed appealing: none tasted good to me, actually on the nasty side. So if it tastes nasty you are not going to want to drink it. I...

    Diet: Low Carb and Ultra Cycling

    First of all Thanks Bob for putting this together! OK - Here's my "story" Last year was my first full year of racing. I trained like a maniac, but did not really think too much about diet. My wife is a great cook and generally we eat healthy and I feel like we had a good mix of meats, veggies...

    Deep Rims

    OK, I just got my Pro Ones mounted without tubes on my 86mm CF wheels! But I did not do it - haha! I took them to my LBS last week! Of course it took them a whole week to do it! They had to use 4 layers of rim tape and band the tire on the outside before they could get them on. $46 well spent at...
