Owasco Stage Race Online Registration.
I did this a few years ago with my friends Will Riffelmacher and Will Dugan and Co. I think there were about 15 of us in the P12 race. It made it super hard. No where to hide. So register now so I have a place to hide.
Technical Q&A with Lennard Zinn: Dialing in those new wheels – VeloNews.
I need to say something about this:
I have ridden them several times and I have noticed a significant pulsation whenever I coast at 20-28 mph. I don’t notice it when I am pedaling although it is probably there.
The pulsation can very well be caused by a few other factors other than what Lennard has propositioned (an unbalanced wheel)
1) The valve stem might not be pushed far enough into the wheel. While tubulars will show a 2-3mm jump where the valve is, a 1-2mm drop on the other side (far side of the valve) can exacerbate this feeling of pulsation. When I mount tubulars, I push very hard while at the top of the wheel so that I have enough “slack” at the bottom to easily pop the tire onto the other side. This helps considerably for pulsation.
2) Not coating the tire and the rim evenly and thoroughly will cause tacking, which can lead to pulsation. Make sure both are covered well.
3) Timing of the application can effect the feel. If you are waiting too long or not long enough and you end up with your thumbs all over the tire and glue, it will affect the adherence of between the two. This variation can (slightly) cause pulsation at high speeds because the tire is not completely bonded to the rim at speed.
Having glued a number of tubulars every season and experimenting with the best techniques for getting a proper “edge to edge” gluing, these are a few tricks that have caused pulsation in wheels with us.

If all that doesn’t work, check this: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=1781+Riverside+Dr,+New+York,+NY+10034&daddr=Flemington,+NJ+to:1616+Catharine+St,+Philadelphia,+PA+to:Skillman+NJ+to:Ringoes+NJ+to:Rocky+Hill,+NJ+to:NJ-79+%26+Court+House+Square,+Freehold,+Monmouth,+New+Jersey+07728&hl=en&geocode=%3BFTESagIdq9iJ-w%3B%3B%3B%3B%3BFeFSZgId_auS-ymJ4UOCZ9TDiTGYZC1sHqKrXg&mra=pe&mrcr=5&sll=40.48456,-74.550476&sspn=1.374552,2.175293&ie=UTF8&z=9
Oh that looks like the same thing…
Ok, so this is really the Giro di Princeton. Everything is within a 20 mile radius, which kind of kills the entire “Giro” aspect of this. Well, at least its relatively straight forward as to what we’re doing. Round and round Princeton. I’m kind of excited for this race as it’ll be a good test of the form for the Fitchburg Longsjo Classic. The Van Dessel Factory Squad has brought on some ringers for this event, so i hope we can be in the mix and get some results rocking. I think these stages will be a lot like the Derbys from this winter.
Oh and the wheels! I’ll be starting off with a set of Rev-50s for a while then switching over to probably the American Classic 38s because the 50s are rented this weekend somewhere else. Yay! I might also try the Bontrager Aeolus 5.0 carbon clinchers. They’re pretty rad and I’ve never ridden a carbon clincher. Wiswell will be rocking his tubeless DuraAce carbon clinchers. They’re super secret fast.

Cycling news finally looks decent. After living a life of confused, befuddled articles and organization, cyclingnews has finally gotten some organization together. Very nice.
Saw this on VeloNews and thought it was a cool product. We got one for the bike case rentals to see how customers like them. If people like them, we’ll start to carry them through the shop.
