Following this thread with interest, as I'm in pretty much the same boat on my Vado SL.
Over the last 2 years, my legs have gotten much better at steering clear of the pins on my current elongated Rock Bros MTB pedals without conscious intervention. But they still get bitten now and then —...
From a 25 mi, 1,500 ft hill and coast fitness ride several days ago. Still working off the Holidays. As an enticement to climb, the route strung together several favorite local descents.
First stop, a favorite overlook at the top of the ride. Thanks to our ongoing Santa Ana winds, my clearest...
Back to gray skies and winter temperatures (around 60°F) now that our Santa Ana winds are gone and the marine layer's retaken the coast.
But still a great morning for the missus and I to ride up the coast to Carlsbad Village for brunch at a favorite breakfast spot.
Stopped on the way back to...
Just started watching the men's Stage 1 replay. Interesting Sam Watson interview. I like this kid! Yeah, I know he's 24, but he looks 12.
Sounds committed to helping his team's star sprinter — another Sam W. — in the first few stages. Hinted that he might be free to race for himself after that.
Fabulous SF ride!
Looks like the video started in Sausalito, where we lived for 7-8 years back in the 1980s. Rode MTB all over Marin County and the East Bay but somehow only rode across the Golden Gate Bridge once. What was I thinking??
Welcome aboard! From your mindful past approach to cadence and gearing, guessing you'd enjoy a built-in rider power meter as much as I enjoy the one on my Vado SL 1 5.0.
Obviously not the most important factor in your decision. But which of the SL 2s offer a real-time rider power display —...
Welcome aboard! Must've been quite a scene. Probably too crowded for me, but I'm a sucker for colored lights in the dark — especially when they're moving.
What's wrong with reviving an "old" thread with an on-topic post??
If EBR's to be an effective repository of collective ebike-related experience, better that than starting a new thread. A good storage system must also be a good retrieval system.
Watching the Tour Down Under prologue TT replay on Peacock right now. Sam Watson's been in the hot seat for a long time now. Ben O'Connor just started.
Glad to have World Tour cycling to watch again. Nothing inspires the fitness parts of my rides like watching pros making their superhuman feats...
A GCN video reminded me yesterday of a major gotcha in zone training (ZT):
If you can't actually stay in Zone 2 when you're supposed to, maybe ZT isn't for you.
Many credible sources on ZT recommend a roughly 80/20% mix of Zone 2/4 riding. But to reap max benefit, you really need to stay in...
