A reminder that yours truly is hosting the new 2024 Calvins Challenge in Springfield, Ohio on May 18-19. Larry Graham, the prior organizer from 2016 (and many years earlier) has been kind enough to help me get this going again in 2024. We will use the same famous 50 and 7 mile loops and use the...

As you may know I ran the 2024 Bike Sebring event in Florida on Mar 23-24. Since I was not able to ride in that event I decided to do a WUCA record attempt on Mar 20 instead - so I would not waste all my fitness. Here is a link to my report...

I have begun work on a 50x20 bonus room to my house for the Cruzeum. Hoping to be done by this summer. Doing virtually all of it myself, so no time for riding the last 2 months. :( Gayle can't wait for me to finish so she can get all the bikes out of the other rooms in the house. Here is a...

I am going to to the Natchez 444 on Sept 30. I would like to ride the first part of the course from Nashville at least 100 miles and to maybe Tupelo sometime prior to the event. I am looking for someone who would be able to help me. My plan would be to leave at the Northmost point on Natchez and...

Better late than never ! haha Executive Summary: On June 12, 2022 at 5:40am I took off on my quest to become the oldest person to ride an unfaired bike 100 miles in under 4-hours. This was on an ordinary road in Savannah Ga with less than average surface quality. I was riding a Cruzbike...

I am happy to announce that Cruzbike has graciously provided the prototype of the first V20C to me for the Cruzeum and to so some testing with. I love the one-of-a-kind "brushed aluminum" frame. I intend to buff it out and get it clear coated at some point It is not 100% road worthy at this...

Hi Everyone, I am in discussion with Greg (owner of Thor Composites) about making a mold for a "Thor" seat that would fit the Vendetta frame exactly. I am looking for someone with a Vendetta who is close to him that might be able to take their frame to him for him to get exact measurements off...

I am doing some experimentation with V20 seats and need a couple to play with. If anyone out there has any unwanted CF Vendetta or V20 seats, I would be happy to take it off your hands. It does not have to be in perfect condition I will of course pay for the postage to me. Thanks in advance...

I have apparently been scammed in my attempt to have a Cruzbike delivered to me! I am reporting a Cruzbike Vendetta V2 stolen and I would like everyone to "keep an eye out" if they see one suddenly pop up for sale. (I have reported it to the police, so if anyone sees an ad for one please let me...

This is Larry Oslund's Race Report 7 years ago - This exact race was my foray into ultra-racing. I got my first Cruzbike (a Silvio 2.0) in late June 2014, and 7 weeks later I rode it in this 12-hour race. I went 237 miles and remember I was a little disappointed that I did not break 20mph...
