Not sure what will be my first, but i'm thinking about the Angel Fire XC race on May 20.

i decided to purchase the...

Just wondering if anyone has any advice on how to get sponsorship. I'm really just looking to at least get some gear or expenses covered. This racing thing can get really expensive when you do some...
i can't even believe that! why are people so uptight about cyclists?? To think she was willing to potentially hurt someone. People are sometimes very misinformed and close-minded. If more people...
i agree with Chille, in that racing pushes you to a level that you would have never thought possible. it's amazing how much faster you become during competition. you learn to listen to you body...

Congrats!! That's awesome!! usually the people who enter the tri's are x-swimmers. the cramping issue is the worst.. What's the answer...do you rest or just try to run it off??

I have heard that as well for road biking. it keeps the bike torqued for better contact with the pavement.

i had read this as well. So excited about the turnaround!! If anyone cares about the future of biking, they should become a member of IMBA. The organization is bringing about change in a positive...
when i ride, i tend to make terrible, weird faces. I've been told to just relax my upper body muscles, including the ones in my face. You tend to waste energy by tensing so much.
Next time you...

the best part of the 12 hour was that we started the race at 12pm and went to 12am. so, we only had to do 1 night lap each. you also don't have to deal with sleep deprievation like you do for the...
try Elete. You add it to water, and it still takes like water. comes in a bottle and only a few drops are necessary. it totally helps with cramping and doesn't contain any sugar.
