I had posted this great video from Specialized/Lululemon on Facebook a while ago. I think it’s really nice to see this level of production for a woman’s team in cycling. I’m very interested to see the type of traction and coverage Specialized/Lululemon gets this season, especially in the women’s demographic. They’ve got some huge cycling [...]

As I sit here in the airport with a half-finished article I know isn’t going to be complete before I board, I thought I’d give you this to perk your spirits on Humpday… Enjoy!

A cool little film from Holland Cycles showing how their hand crafted ‘ExoGrid’ frames are built. From what I can tell in the video, it’s actually pretty crazy the amount of precision that must go into this. What starts as a solid titanium tube has a distinct pattern of diamonds laser-cut out of it, which [...]

Following up on the post from last week, here is the second instalment of my interview with Team H&R Block‘s, Aaron Schooler. In this part of the interview Aaron talks about the shift from roads to cyclocross season, and the changes he makes to his own training. For more information on Aaron, check out his [...]

Now into it’s second season, Behind the Barriers is a behind the scenes look at Jeremy Powers and his adventures in the US cyclocross scene. I vaguely remember watching one episode last year, but never really got into things. Now that it’s cross season again and I’m following things a little more closely I gave [...]

Just ’cause we’re starting to lose daylight a lot earlier doesn’t mean you can’t still ride :-) Granted it looks like he’s rocking a $600+ Lupine Piko… I guess if I was headed down a mountain in the dark I want some pretty serious candle power too ;-)

It’s Friday. The sun is shining. Go ride.

What a cool way to spend your retirement – It’s always fascinating learning how retirees got to where they are and the story of how they began. It’s also inspiring to see somebody take the skills they’ve learned over their lives, stay passionate about it and apply it to something new. I’m getting quite a charge [...]
