Okay everyone, I've been taking up space in our garage for 2-3 (can't remember, it all blends together) years now with UNR Cycling clothing (and any of you who have been to our house know that storage space is a seriously limiting factor), and reluctantly and belatedly getting check requests processed for y'all.  Can someone, anyone, please
volunteer to be the new team treasurer?  I'll show you all you need to know!  And I'll bake you cookies!  Seriously, I'm not even a UNR student (not even a student at all really) and it would be awesome if someone can step up and take on this responsibility!  If you know team members who aren't on the list serve please pass this along!
 
Marian
 
PS - oh yeah, Mr. Deane did take the clothing from me for awhile - want to give credit where credit is due.  :)

At the meeting last night it was decided that the end-of-season part will be on Friday, December 11 at Pete Morris's house.  Stupid festive Christmas sweaters are mandatory attire.  More details later.

Matt,

Yes it is I, Chris Payne who has developed this Ride calendar to steel your e-mail.  To bad I already had it.  The reason I didn’t put my name all over the calendar is I want it to be a public resource, not my personal ride web-site.

Secondly you are asked to give an e-mail address so the calendar can e-mail you when new events are posted.  I am the only one who can see the e-mail address.  The calendar does not show me your pass word; if you forget it I have the ability to send you an e-mail to reset it.  Your e-mail address is not being sold or anything like that. 

And yes Matt there are several of these calendars in Vegas, all set up by the person who helped me set this one up.  I lived in Vegas for the last 16 months and met a lot of people using these calendars.  My wife and I thought it would be a nice thing to have here in Reno also. 

If any one has anymore questions about the calendar please send them to admin@..., halfwheeler@..., or for you Matt chrisepayne@....

 

Keep the rubber side down,

Chris Payne

I don't understand what all the secret identity crap is all about on who is
posting this thing. My guess it is Chris Payne who used to race for UNR and
the Wheelmen. It would be nice to feel secure on who you are giving your
e-mail address too? Nice concept though.

Long version:
This e-mail is being sent to inform you about www.RenoRidez.com.  RenoRidez is a
calendar where rides, runs, tri training, etc. can be posted.  Anyone can post a
ride, and once a ride is posted others can sign up for the ride.  Comments and

The main goal of setting this calendar up is to bring people together to train. 
A wise old cyclist told me early on "You only get stronger training with

Yo,

So if you are one of the select few who has chosen to rep hard at conference
champs this weekend, You need to go ahead and leave your bikes at my house so we
can load them into the trucks heading down there.

I live at:

298 Talus Way
Reno NV
89503

I'll be home today at about 5:30, but if you cant meet me for whatever reason,
give me a call and i'll tell you where i've hidden the key...
(415-531-3026 is my numba...)

so, to clarify what feels like a mixed up message:

If you are racing this weekend, get your bicycle to my house so we can load them
into one of the two pick-ups going down there. if you have issue call me.

Words,

EMCD

So, it looks like A's racers can use aero/TT stuff next year, although all non A's racers may not.  Starting in 2011 no one can use aero/TT stuff for collegiate racing.

Subject: Memo regarding 2010 Collegiate Cycling rule changes

 

Dear Conference Directors, team leaders and conference members,

 

Wow.  The Collegiate Board of Trustees is amazed with the incredible amount of feedback we have received regarding the 2010 rule change summary, in particular on the issue of aero equipment. The Board strives for active involvement and engagement by our members, and we have received over sixty pages of information both for and against the requirement for mass-start-legal equipment.  The Board of Trustees seriously considers all of the material we receive with regards to the sport of Collegiate Cycling and this time is no different.

 

With regards to the rule change legislation for 2010, please see the updated Rule Change Summary at http://bit.ly/ 2X2XsL [1].  Due to the timing of the rule publications, the nature of the rule in question, and our desire to give teams adequate time to adjust to the new regulations, the Board of Trustees has adjusted the timing of the implementation of the regulations regarding mass-start-legal equipment in Collegiate Cycling Races as follows:

 

    For 2010, all "non-A" categories (B, C, D, E) are required to adhere to the

    requirements for mass-start-legal equipment in all Collegiate Cycling Races

    including individual and team time trials.

 

    For 2011, all categories, including A, will be required to use mass-start

    equipment in all Collegiate Cycling Races including individual and team time

    trials.

 

Furthermore, we have identified two issues that warrant change.

 

The first issue is with regards to the creation and dissemination of the rule changes, the Board has made a top-to-bottom evaluation of our processes. We have investigated other USA Cycling Trustee methods and resolved to adopt an improved process of collecting potential rule change legislation, disseminating a list of rules under consideration for voting, and providing an opportunity to present your input to the Board for consideration in its deliberations.  This includes the following revision to Rule 7B3(d):

 

    7B3(d) Changes to the Rules. The Board of Trustees considers changes to the

    Rules twice per year; at road and mountain bike nationals.

 

    (i) To be considered, a proposed rule change must be submitted prior to April

    15th / September 15th to the Chairperson at collegiaterules@ usacycling. org by

    a Conference Director, acting on his or her own behalf or on behalf of one or

    more Riders or other individuals. To be considered, each proposed rule change

    must include (A) the affected section of the Rules; (B) the language of the

    rule as then in effect; (C) the proposed revision to the rule; and (D) an

    explanation of and justification for the proposed rule change.

    (ii) The Board of Trustees will endeavor to publish the rule change proposals

    that it has received and will be considering by April 30th / September 30th,

    respectively.

    (iii) Feedback from Riders and other individuals will be accepted at

    collegiaterules@ usacycling. org until the conclusion of Collegiate Cycling

    Road / Mountain Bike National Championship, and the Board of Trustees will

    debate and vote on all proposed rule changes thereafter.

    (iv) The Board of Trustees will endeavor to publish the rule changes to each

    Conference twice per year; however rules will not go into effect until January

    1st.

    (v) The Board of Trustees will deliver to the Collegiate Cycling Manager a

    revised rulebook not later than December 31 for internal review and

    publication by USA Cycling.

 

The second issue involves reevaluating the structure of the Board of Trustees. The Board was first formed in 2004, when Collegiate Cycling became a full Association of USA Cycling. Recognizing that the sport has matured considerably since then, we are examining increasing the size of the Board to broaden representation and gain additional volunteer resources. This will ensure that we continue to meet our significant obligations as a Board of Trustees while providing adequate representation for all of our key stakeholders.  The Board endeavors to bring about these changes as soon as practicable.

 

Thank you all for your understanding and continued support of Collegiate Cycling.

 

Respectfully,

Mark Abramson

On behalf of USA Cycling Collegiate Board of Trustees

Hey guys,

Hanns has asked all of the teams to compile their thoughts on the new "no aero
equipment" rules to take effet his year. If you haven't heard, there will be no
aero equip allowed for time trials and Team time trials. That's right- no aero
bars, helmets, disc wheels and tri spokes. I wil compile a message to him, so
send your thoughts out to the listserve by friday pm. So far, here is what i
think:

In general, these rules level the playing field as far as equipment investment.
Our team would benefit from this rule change since we have very little time
trial equipment overall. Some teams that are well funded are able to acquire
equipment that gives them an advantage over other teams. While it is true that
you can gain a lot of aerodynamics with a cheap pair of clip on bars and a 60$
TT helmet, at the level of competition where the competing riders are within a
few seconds of eachother, any more investment into equipment does give a
significant advantage. Also, TT bikes with aero design and a sleek front end are
absolutely necessary to win a national level TT. As far as a TTT, to compete at
nationals is a very significant investment since at least 3 riders of the group
need to have similarly purchased TT gear. I did not know that these rules were
being discussed at USA cycling, I do support the outcome.

As far as the arguement that the rule will put our collegiate riders at a
disadvantage against USCF and UCI competitors, I agree with Matt Mansur that
having TT equipment does little if anything for rider development.

Anyways, let me know of you agree or disagree and I will send hanzzy a message.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

So, UCSB is officially, again, the last race of the MTN season. I feel it would
beneficial to us to have an EXTREMELY strong showing there, as we are currently
sitting in second, not to far behind CPSLO. PLEASE COME! This is a venue similar
to Parkfield in the way that all the teams camp together, making post race
activities rather entertaining.

We are going to have a meeting about travel coordination next Monday, at 8:00 on
the third floor of the JCSU. If you cannot make the meeting, but want to come to
the race, Email me or hit me up via text or talk on my mo-bile phone.
(415-531-3026)

Also, we have been lagging on this with our hosting of national champs, but it
is time to pick new officers for the team. I was thinking of having a meeting
AFTER UCSB to do this, so we could focus on it entirely. Any objection to that?

I will send out a list of all the available positions, which is all of them.
Nothing wrong with an actual election! If you want to run, start thinking now!

Thats about all I've got for now,

Eddie

Hi All,

Bad news.  UCD will be unable to host a race this mountain bike season.  This means that the conference championships will be held at Santa Barbara's race on Nov 14,15.  Expect an email in the next day or so from our Sport Clubs office detailing why they are not allowing us to host a race this year.  We're all really bummed, and sincerely apologize for having to step down from our commitment of hosting conference, and any inconvenience this change may cause.

sincerely,

Daniel Stuart

I cracked the frame on my road bike, there's only about an inch and a half of
metal still attached along the down tube just behind the head tube.  I'm going
to a couple of shops to see if I can do a warranty exchange on it, but I did buy
it used.  I don't have any money to buy a new frame.  I need a 60-61cm frame, I
know it's asking a lot, but anything would help.
If anybody has some advice, my ears are open.

Alex

The skinny is that no aero equipment will be allowed for TTT or ITT. All bikes
and equipment including helmets must be UCI mass start legal.

https://www.usacycling.org/news/user/story.php?id=4527

There is some debate going on with the WCCC listserve, but it will be too late
to change the rule back for this year, until road nats in the spring. So 1 bike
should be enough.....

This is a 2009 yellow Transition Blindside size SM. Probably the sweetest build I've ever had. Rides perfect with absolutely no defects, dents, or scratches (excluding a little chain slap). This bike was lightly ridden about a dozen times after purchased and built about four months ago, so it's like brand new. (NOTE: FORK IN PIC IS NOT FORK SELLING WITH BIKE) I love the way this bike rides and it LOOKS sweet to. The build includes:

2009 Yellow Transition Blindside Frame w/Fox DHX 5.0 Shock
2008 Boxxer Team *NOT ON BIKE IN PICTURE YET WILL UPDATE SOON*
2009 Ano Red Azonic Outlaw Wheelset
Maxxis Minion 2.5 Tires
Hayes Stroker Ace 8" Hydrolic Disc Brakes
SRAM X-9 Shifting System
E-13 Chainguide w/Azonic Bashguard
Ano Red Azonic 420 Pedals
FUNN Fatboy Bars
ODI Grips with Azonic Ano Red Lockrings
Transition Blindside Decal Kit


Thanks!!!

Hey Everyone,

 

I’m new to the area and looking for a roommate for my new home out in Wingfield. I’d like to get someone who is active in riding because I am into triathlons. Email me for details about the room or if you live in the area and looking to train.

Thanks

The ride today will be leaving the student union on campus at noon. I
was thinking about going through Rancho, around McCarran, to Verdi,
back up through caughlin ranch, and then back to campus. This is going
to be a nice mellow ride with some climbs sprinkled in here and there.
If you are new to the team come out and meet everyone.

Looks like the weather is going to be nice this thursday. I would like to get everyone who wants to race road this spring together for an easy ride. Anytime on thursday works for me. The road team looks to be the biggest in recent history so we should start planning now for a successful season. I would like to float some ideas about group rides, categories, team training camp in feb (death valley), TTT's and scheduling. For those of you wanting to go to nationals training should begin Nov 1. For those with the ability to train with power a formal threshold test should be done ASAP.  If you don't have power we can do a threshold test based on HR. Let me know if thursday works. If not we can try for the weekend also but I will have to do the ride in Washoe valley because I am on call at the hospital this weekend and need to be within 30 minutes of the hospital. If you have not done a formal threshold test before check out Chad Timmerman's indoor power class. He will be doing threshold testing soon and it's a nice controlled environment.

Yo,

So, everyone's favorite national champ, Jon Wilson, was kind enough to plug the
recent Nationals with our school newspaper, aka the Sagebrush. The article
should be published tomorrow, 10/27! Hopefully some rad shots get used, as i
sent the author about 50 different pics to choose from. muhaha.

Also, my parentals took quite a few pics from the nationals weekend, as well as
some video. my mother published it on http://nevadacycling.shutterfly.com/
Sadly, they are pretty "eddie heavy" but hey, they were my parents, and i am the
best looking on the team, so i guess y'all should be honored. zow!

that is all for now, until next time, stay frosty.

Eddie

Dear cyclists,

The Reno Gazette Journal recently published, "Two-wheeled troublemaking: have motorists let bicyclists' rights go too far?".
It may be worth your while to let the RGJ know that Reno's cycling community values their limited rights to the road.
Ride safely,
Kurstin Graham

Just a reminder!  The Sierra Summit only has about 40 seats left and the Riverside has around 80.
