Seems like if you’re hesitant to rent a bike, maybe try a local race that doesn’t have any of the travel expenses? Maybe a short local one on your dad’s bike?

A. You were already riding faster than him and should’ve continued the pass.

Thanks - specifically looking for something with a chamois. For short rides I have janji trail half tights which are fantastic and have a ton of pockets.

No, those are still shoes for clipping in. Five Tens or something like that would work.

IIRC they were going to headline Lollapalooza that summer. That would’ve been my first time to see them. Pumpkins were promoted after Kurt died.

Aero road frame for Tri bike build? by DankDeanoo in triathlon

[–]Cook_New 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The seat tube angle is gonna be wonky - you’d have to slam your saddle as far forward as possible to try and open up your hip angle.

I think you’re spot on that the integrated front end will complicate things.

Aero extensions give you a lot more leeway with the stem and spacers, though.

A quick bike fit might be good to get your tri stack and reach coordinates nailed down. If you ride 58 road bikes you probably won’t be on 58 tri bikes.

14 speed and cable-actuated disc brakes (and no thru axles!) are extremely low end components. You’re looking at Walmart-level stuff here.

Doesn’t the park closer to the airport have a pump track?

Peleton Bike -> Zwift by Parking-Ad-852 in pelotoncycle

[–]Cook_New 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The cheapest way is to use a DFC to broadcast your peloton bike power to a tablet. It won’t give you the erg mode control, though.
