Re: Home Trainer Setup

I'm a big fan of indoor training. I have a Wahoo Kickr that I use with Erg Videos and Zwift. Would be happy to give my 2 cents worth.

Re: Saturday sufferfest - the glorious resurrection

Just saw that Stéphane Tran is doing one of his big climbey rides tomorrow. If there is no interest for Jordan River, I will try to join that ride. Sorry if I said anything I said that might have suggested that there will be an end to summer, warmth or sunshine, Claire. Hope and sunshine springeth e...

Re: Climbing ride

I was hoping that there would be some interest in doing a Sufferfest ride to Jordan River, but so far there are no takers. If that doesn't pan out, I would like to join you. I will post again later tonight to confirm. Your Big Climbey Ride a while ago was one of my favourite rides of the year.

Re: Saturday sufferfest - the glorious resurrection

How about an End of Summer ride to Jordan River and back tomorrow (September 2nd)? Might be the last chance for a warm, sunny Sufferfest ride.

Great weather, great ride and great company! Thanks for organizing this, Stéphane. Should make this a semi-regular ride.

Re: Saturday sufferfest - the glorious resurrection

You're a true hardcore, Dave. I tried again at 9am with Oak Bay but tore off my rear derailleur. Going to try again at 2:30pm. Hopefully, third time lucky.

Rats, no one else showed up this morning. I guess I'm going home and back to bed.

Re: Saturday sufferfest - the glorious resurrection

Looks like a low probability of precipitation on Saturday morning, so I'm in. I'm sure you'll hit 5 riders before the end of today.

Hot Damn! I've been looking forward to the Sufferfest for a long time. Thanks for getting the ball rolling on this, Claire.

Re: A Tripleshot Poem

What a wonderful experience to have such a beautiful and appreciative tribute delivered to us by a local poet. It more than makes up for all the ignorant epithets that have been hurled at us over the years. Thank you Dvora Levin for an unforgettable moment.

Re: Is Cycling Killing Us?

Great discussion -- I was hoping that there would be some in-house experts and people with personal experience on the matter and I wasn't disappointed! A special thanks to Craig, Barton, Brian and Marcus for their views. Two years ago I had never heard of atrial fibrillation in relation to long-term...

Sufferfest Saturday August 15

This could be the last week to do the Sufferfest without needing lights.
Chris Marshall and I will be starting at Starbucks on Cook Street at 6:00am and plan to ride at 33+ kph depending on the turnout. Hope to see you there.

Re: Whistler gran fondo

I'm registered to do it. It's my first time doing Whistler Gran Fondo, so I'm not totally sure how hard it will be, but I am aiming to break 3:40.
