For me the wind is a love hate relationship. Sometime I love the challenge and fun of it other times I just want off. More then once the wind has been strong enough it felt like it was trying to peel...
I have watery eyes when I descend big hills at high speeds. It has been dangerous at times because I can't see much and going down a hill at 40mph. But have not had this happen on normal rides except...
Ok,I voted either. Because I have been out on bone chilling days in the single digits to high teens. While on the other end of the spectrum it is 95 but the heat index is 105. Or my all time least...
Sorry Ladies,
I tend to be way to competitive with people. But I am actually happy with my now 200+ miles. And we are getting a warm up so I will be able to go outside if I don't have to work, and...
OK, my goal was originally 500 miles, but I have never ridden that much in one month especially in January. Right now it looks like I will end up a little over 200 miles all but 70 outside. Which is...
Good job! You should be proud of yourself. That little chain thing cost you the time not your body. That is why even in TT the winner isn't always the absolute fastest. Sorry, I'm the type that...
I have no problem with my Adidas road shoes. They are a carbon sole shoe so there is no give when I walk in them. However, the have the little rubber end at the toe and heel for walking. I have had...
Nothing wrong with adding another class or two if you want to. It will give your muscles a boost to get into a slightly new routine. Which means you will see some progress in your endurance and...
Wow I was just thinking about this on my ride today. It was kind of warm 39. I live where it gets into the single digits in late January and early Ferbruary. Anyway, I tend to use my cycling gloves...
Hope you feel better. I was in the ER this past weekend for an accident as well. I didn't make it over the tree quite how I hoped. Instead of a bunny hop it turned into an endo. I can kind of feel...
Ok I have a question that none of you may not be able to anwser but here goes. All you ladies that ride clipless is there a point that your feet will atomatically be released from the pedals? I mean...
Night riding is so much fun. It is important to find a good light that will illuminate the road or trail for you and of course let you be seen. It seems that the best bet if you have the money is to...
Good thing I didn't promise not to try that. But I love the standard tuck to much anyway, it does the job for me. I love to try to get my chin as low to the stem as I can, actually touching most of...
I can't remember having to endure this at any of the bike shops I have been to. But I usually go in acting and knowing what is going on and what I want. I hate to be pesterd by sales people until I...
I love my aero bars too. I use them when the mood strikes me, or I want to go fast. I also use them when pulling a group at speed. They make it easier to go faster. Not just for racing. Everyone is...
Pre race mess up.
I had a race on Saturday and was riding in northwest PA, where it is brutal hilly but not yet mountains. Anyway I got off course in my practice ride. Oh, the misery I found when I...
Wow, that looks painful. The only blessing is that it is short compared to what it could be. Imagine trying to climb that beast for another 100ft. I don't think I would make it.
You know this topic always comes up this time of year. I have often wonder what other women do in this situation. I usually am half dehydrated most of the time so I usually don't have to go. ...
Oh, I thought of one the other day. You know you are a bike geek when you can answer average speed, how long it will take to get to point a, and how long will it take to catch someone and you never...
The pedal should make contact with the ball of your foot. However, if you have platform pedals, like the ones on most kids bikes and the kind you find at wal-mart. You will sometimes finding...
I did mine last Monday on the 2nd of July it was a solo effort so not organized. To the lady who feels she didn't train enough it'll be fine, if you have done a century before you can do it again.
I don't generally care if somebody needs a pull as long as I know somebody is behind me. I also have no problem drafting off of somebody who is willing to pull me. Usually if I need the help of a...
I have the problem that if I wore shorter shorts or sleeveless jerseys I would burn to a pretty purple on the blindingly white skin. However where I am tan I can ride outside in sun for hours and not...
Got my first century in for the season. I'm really happy about that. It was on a flat course though. It had a few long but shallow grades.
