Member 2098 Simsbury, Connecticut | Subject: RE: Mad Manatee Mentors 2013: CLOSED (exc/ Pop Tart bribes) Originally posted by brigby1 Originally posted by mtnbikerchk so hypothetically, if one were to buy a tri bike, how long should I give myself before "tri season" to get used to riding it?  It's very individual. I would have been fine racing from a handling perspective within a coupe rides, but I ride a lot so it was less of an adjustment. Someone less familiar is probably going to take longer. It took more time than that to be able to stay in the position longer though. ETA: Oh, the type of race matters too. More technical and more crowded would mean more familiarity. I like to think I have good bike handling skillz - probably more so on my mountain bike though. I made the mistake of asking my LBS when they think would be good - of course they say NOW! $$$ CHA CHING! LOL |

Originally posted by mtnbikerchk so hypothetically, if one were to buy a tri bike, how long should I give myself before "tri season" to get used to riding it? Doooo EEEEEET! As for how long... it didn't take me long to get used to aero. If you're comfortable on a bike anyway it won't take long to switch. But why wait? I use mine on the trainer during the winter. Not because we have weather so bad I can't get outside, it's New Mexico after all, but because the days are so short it's difficult to ride during daylight hours. Helps build those aero muscles. Aero muscles, hahaha I like it. Can I have running aero muscles. You know, to be more aero? Lose some weight. All that non-running training blew you up.

I mean, I didn't want to come right out and say that, but, jeez, man, strap on a pair and start doing something already. You're kind of an embarassment to the pod. ;POriginally posted by switch Originally posted by brigby1 Ben, are all swims like this sans wetsuit? Originally posted by jmkizer Racing Manatees!

| Master 10208 Northern IL | Subject: RE: Mad Manatee Mentors 2013: CLOSED (exc/ Pop Tart bribes) Originally posted by blueyedbikergirl Originally posted by rrrunner So to add to our FACHMIE line of usable words I offer a new one. First the background. I spent a lot of last week with the agents from our Las Cruces office. They were telling me about some of the agents in the El Paso office who speak with Mexican accents. This became quite funny when a Ford Focus was added to their office fleet. Apparently when someone with a Mexican accent says focus it sounds more like f*ckus. So there you have it. I saw several Ford Focuses (focusi?) on the way to work today and each one made me chuckle. So I thought I should share it with y'all. Focus. HA! F*ckus focusi! ETA: Dangit - Salty beat me to it. Foci We're going to be confusing cars and bread soon. |
