Group vs Training rides, what's the difference?
Posted by: webgeek on Friday, May 02, 2008 - 07:12 PM (73 Reads)
What is the difference?
I usually try to refer to the faster (cut-throat, everyone-for-themselves, EFT?) rides as Training rides and the more casual managed paced rides as Group rides. Of course most organized rides end up somewhere in between, with an accommodation of some kind for the slower riders, like most of our weekend rides. At the extremes, the pure Group ride is too rigid and pure Training ride is too stressful. In the pure states, neither formula are of great benefit for most of the riders. A pure group ride is too slow for most riders and pure "race simulation" training ride is too stressful to allow for recovery.

Bicycle Accidents
Posted by: webgeek on Saturday, March 29, 2008 - 03:02 AM (189 Reads)
Bicycle wrongful deaths accounted for 2 percent of all traffic fatalities, and cyclists made up 2 percent of all the people injured in auto accidents during the year.

Stories: ...cycling equivalent of the 1927 New York Yankees.
Posted by: webgeek on Sunday, February 10, 2008 - 09:42 PM (275 Reads)
Such were the comments of Bob Cullinan on his PEZcycling blog.
"This is a helluva lineup...it looks like the cycling equivalent of the 1927 New York Yankees." Which very much summed up what I was thinking, while looking at the Team Astana '08 lineup. Yes, who'd want that bunch at the GIRO anyway? Any bets that race results, might reverse that decision?...

Polk County "Land of Barking Dogs"*
Posted by: webgeek on Monday, January 28, 2008 - 04:06 AM (350 Reads)
It was definitely that today. We did a 50 miler and we got chased by nearly twice as many dogs as any other ride I have been on. I guess it was warm enough that everyone let their dogs out. Yeah, who did let them dogs out anyway?

"Computers are like bicycles for our minds." Steve Jobs...
Posted by: webgeek on Thursday, March 22, 2007 - 03:01 AM (829 Reads)
After being ousted from Apple, Steve Jobs headed for the Tuscan hills of northern Italy, where he bought a bicycle and a sleeping bag, and contemplated what he would do next. That turned out to be NeXT Software, which he sold to Apple, fuelling his return and second act. (from theglobeandmail.com) Is there a deeper, interesting cycling thread here? I began to wonder...
