I ordered a new bike and it should be here on Tuesday. I thought I had made my mind up on components but am confused now. I had decided to go with Ultegra. In Shimano I am looking at a double...

I like design 1 and like 1B the best too! Could you put a bike or a shadow of a bike on the "road" on the back of the jersey? Just a thought! It doesnt have to be center of the road but would look...

I am waiting on my new bike to arrive and have started looking at bike computers. Would like to be able to see the grade of the climb and my cadence along with the time, speed, distance. Thoughts on...

Oh my goodness! I ordered the same exact bike last Tuesday! Still waiting for it to come in. I did change from SRAM rival to Ultegra because I had never used SRAM! I just told my husband I sure...

Thank you all for responding! I am hoping my bike comes in this week. I am worried that the Fulcrums have a lot of red on them and my bike is white, black and Cabernet. If the red is mostly on a...

Good morning! I just ordered a Cannondale Synapse Carbon 4 (upgraded from SRAM Rival to Ultegra). The wheelset that comes on the bike is Mavic Aksium WTS. The LBS suggested I could change to a...

I do really like the fit of my current bike. My everyday life stress seems to settle in my shoulders, and I do notice at the end of my current long rides (75 plus) that my shoulders seems to ache a...

I never thought I would want a new bike but I am getting the itch. I have been riding since 2008 and I bought a 2008 Synapse which was the entry level for the Synapse with Tiagra components. I...

How can I change my user name?

I was a newbie in March of last year! I love what someone said about the speed ... "the more I focus on the speed the least I like it" (or something along those lines) because I feel the same way. ...

I did a 43 mile ride recently and had a similar experience. First warm day with humidity. I had my Camelbak which I sucked dry, a water bottle with G2 and was drinking my husband's Camelbak. Ate...

DH and I had done some shorter distances and a 20 and a 26 miler recently. So the 43 miler was the most I have done so far this year. I have been riding for about a year. I did the MS 150 last...

Thinking I should start approaching the hills as the turtle also. What is it that makes us want to just hit the hills hard? :-)

Great of you to help out the gentleman who was lost!

Thank you for all of your responses! I am wonderning if maybe I had some heat some dehydration issues. I probably did not drink enough water the day before the ride. We started at about 9:15 and...

Alright ladies, I need your help! Been riding for a year, rode a 43 mile ride yesterday in our first humid 90 degree day yesterday. Here goes. I ate oatmeal with milk and bananas for breakfast...

When I started riding last year, my LBS said to ride 7 days in a row for at least 20 mins. even if your sit bones are sore! It worked!

What an uplifting story! My father-in-law (who has been the only father I have ever known) was just diagnosed five weeks ago with pancreatic cancer (stage iv) which has spread to both lungs and...
