Kind of an odd question maybe - but have any of you ever heard of (or thought of) hanging a bike in the bathroom? Or done it themselves? It's my only free...
just a reminder that Whet Wednesday is this week (feb. 8) starting at 8PM Candela 116 East 16th St New York, NY Directions 16th Street between Park Ave and...

I just got another report from a tragic accident of a fellow triathlete in switzerland. Besides defensive riding, there is only so much in our control to avoid...
Thanks, Stefan and sorry to hear the bad news. Here in Massachusetts (where I live) MassBike has pretty good tips online about riding in traffic and other...
I completely agree Stefan. There are some drivers on the roads who will never change their attitudes toward cyclists. Be that as it may, we, as a community of...
I agree completely. My saying is... "There are two kinds of drivers out there--those who hate cyclists and those who might." The enemy we make on the road ...
My cycling safety tip is to ride the same route. I know it can get boring, but once you know a road you won't encounter surprises, you'll know where the blind...
Hi, My 2 cents of advice is to always, and I mean always, assume that the car/truck/SUV drivers are not looking at you. They may be looking your way but there...
Has anyone had success/and or issues with mixing Hammer nutrition products (Sustained Energy, Perpetuum) with simple sugar products (such as Gatorade, Gu's,...
Don't forget to look in the side mirrors of the parked cars you are passing - if somebody is in there chances are that the person might open the door....
Hammer does not recommend it. And it's mostly because of 'displacement'. The more simple sugars you have the lower the overall fluid sugar concentration and...
Tried one of the Hammer products - can't remember which - maybe Sustained Energy? - in conjunction with Gatorade on a 20+ mile run last summer; it may have...
I am finally ready to buy my first tri-bike! I've narrowed the search down to Cervelo (P2C) and Quintana Roo (Caliente). I haven't ridden either, but plan to...
Cervelo P3SL 54 inches, DuraAce factory package, CBX Pro carbon bullhorns and aerobar, carbon cranks. Like new, raced once. FOR SALE, got a new bike don¹t...
I'm currently in the process of getting my new tri bike built, and am trying to decide on the crank/cassette. My key race for '06 will be IM Lake Placid......
Personally, I think 650s and a compact is overkill, but there's a better way to do this. Go to Sheldon Brown's Gear Calc http://www.sheldonbrown.com/gears/ ...
Thanks Donald... I actually already "played" with Sheldon Brown's calculator last night... that's how I came up with either a compact crank and 11/23 OR a ...
Inga, I have a 650 and I think I have a 53-39 with an 11-23 cassette. I did switch the cassette out for (I think) a 12-25 to do Nice. Have not done Lake...
Thank you Judith. This is really helpful. Anyone else with 650c wheels... what cassette do you use? (sorry to bug everyone, I don't mean to clutter the board...
sounds to me like what you need are the greatest variety of gears in the middle range. you say you're a spinner so you don't need to have too many gears on...
Without wanting to open up the age-old debate on clinchers v tubulars, just wanted a straw poll on what most people have currently for their deep set race...
tubulars are great for races, be prepared to have a bumpy ride...the pressure on the tires goes up to 220 psi about 50-60 pounds higher than clinchers. Smaller...
So maybe this isn't so much about the doing of the sport as looking good for the sport... I'm planning on doing an out of town race with some girlfriends in ...
For all ye triathletes, we've been informed there are 200 spots left for this race. Not knowing how many spots are left REALLY, you may want to consder...
