I participated in the Chrome Turds for Gold Shoe Exchange a few months ago, sent off a pair of old shoes and a few weeks later got a nice brand new pair of Chrome Kursk shoes back in the mail. I’ll preface this review by saying that I have very picky feet. I can spend... »

Cycling Gear Review: Road ID
Road ID is one of the simplest and most common sense products I’ve come across in a long time. If you’re anything like me you probably don’t bring your wallet or even your ID when you head out for a training ride. I just never think to do it, and when I do I usually... »
Milan-Sanremo
I’m not a huge pro cycling fan, I usually catch some Tour de France highlights each year, and read some of the blog posts about doping scandals, but for the most part that’s been the extent of my following pro cycling the last few years. This year might be different though. I just got done... »

On Tuesday February 16th, 5:30PM at The Hub Training Center they’ll be holding Computrainer races. I’ve heard these Computrainers are pretty sweet. I’ve heard there will be... »
