Ride Detail
Wed, Jun 29, 2011 - 19.60 mi [Cycling] Details
19.60 mi in 01:30:00 hours at 13.07 mi/h on Specialized Epic 29er COMP. [Cycling] Morning Erwin: The Pivot is in the shop for a self-destructing front fork (again), so I took out an Epic Comp 29er on loan... 1st impression is mixed. The bottom bracket is WAY too low, but I needed a little more PSI in th rear shock. Front wheel is too flexy. This bike likes to accelerate, turns well, but overall the Pivot is superior. Oh, I don't like the Brain... to weird.

Sun, Jul 10, 2011 - 19.30 mi [Cycling] Details
19.30 mi in 01:11:31 hours at 16.19 mi/h on Specialized Allez. [Cycling] Erwin Road Ride: Rode out to EP, did 6 in/out of saddle hill repeats on the infield road, and rode home. The heat was rough... couple that with very little sleep, and you can see why the ride was short. HR was screaming, probably due to heat + 8 days with little exercise other than hiking up Bogus Basin. The race this weekend is going to be rough.

Fri, Jul 1, 2011 - 19.60 mi [Cycling] Details
19.60 mi in 01:30:00 hours at 13.07 mi/h on Specialized Epic 29er COMP. [Cycling] Morning Erwin: Setup the Epic loaner very stiff in the rear end (220 psi)... much better. BB still too low, but better. I was riding faster and starting to like it until I tried to sprint up a hill... big mistake... Right at the peak of the power stroke for my right leg, standing, it threw the chain, launching me over the bars... that hurt, and I have a newfound lack of respect for this Epic 29er... I miss my Pivot...
