My other bike is a Stradivarius!

Forget the plastic strummer that comes with Guitar Hero, if you want serious heavy metal then get a guitar bike like the one Dieter ‘Didi’ Senft has created.
The 56-year-old German inventor unveiled his latest creation to the world yesterday in Storkow, Germany.
The 5m by 12m (16ft by 39ft) bike runs on four wheels. More...

Hell of the North Sunday April 13th 259.5 Km, 52.8 Km Of Stone!

It has been awhile since last we saw a wet Paris-Roubaix and enjoyed the delectable results. It's that time again, this time for the 112th Anniversary of the first running, and interestingly enough, the cobbled sections are probably in exactly the same condition as they were over a century ago - perhaps worse. Indeed, Paris-Roubaix is the greatest anachronism in pro cycling, perhaps in all of sport - she's also arguably the toughest, meanest, evilest beast in all of bike racing. More...

Freire takes Gent-Wevelgem

Rabobank's Oscar Freire won the mid-week spring classic Gent-Wevelgem today in a sprint finish. This victory could mean great things for the Spaniard in this weekend's Queen of the Classics, Paris-Roubaix.
Freire won the 200+ kilometer race on a Rabobank Team Colnago Extreme Power. While you may not be able to win the races that Freire does, you can have the bike he rides. Call Mike or Tim about adding something Italian to the stable.

EPVA announces new weeknight categories

The East Point velodrome has announced new racing categories for the Wednesday Night spring races. These levels are:
Elite
Expert
Competitive
New Track Racer
See the Dick Lane Velodrome website for full details. http://www.dicklanevelodrome.com/
One of the main concerns behind this restructuring is rider safety, a matter particularly near to my heart. Pete, Brian and Wayne are also hoping this change will allow riders to find a group where they can consistently be competitive.No one enjoys racing just off the back week after week, surviving from one race to the next. The new categories will also afford riders the opportunity to work on race strategy and technique.
Riders must accumulate points to move up in category.
