Rouleur, Issue 16

by frank / Feb 12 2010 / 10 posts

Getting each new copy of Rouleur is almost a religious experience. It is printed on heavy paper, and has a particular smell about it; the pages are printed with a mat finish, so the heavy, rough pages feel a certain way in your hands as you turn them. There is no other periodical that I’……

The Wearing-o-the Kit

by john / Jan 8 2010 / 29 posts

Is it awesome to wear matching jerseys and shorts? Yes, but it took me a long time and a trip to Italy to have this revelation. Is it a violation of The Rules (#14)? Perhaps.……

Velominati Super Prestige: Tour de Suisse

by Brett / Jun 10 2010 / 239 posts

The inaugural Velominati Super Prestige makes an unscheduled stop this week at the Tour de Suisse. Originally left off the VSP roster, it was decided among the Keepers that the ‘fourth Grand Tour’ is indeed worthy of inclusion in our humble tipping competition. As one of the fina……

Sur la Plaque: Mechanics of the Big Ring

by frank / Nov 13 2009 / 120 posts

I’ve been riding for long enough to know that what “feels” good and and what “is” good in terms of technique are two independent sets with a small intersection; it’s very important to put a lot of thought and research into what you’re doing to make sure……

Project Zero: Zip Rebuild

by frank / Sep 5 2009 / 8 posts

Phase I of Project Zero is complete. Stock, the Zip wasn’t a bike that i was going to be able to ride. First of all, I’m too tall for the 270mm Ritchey seatpost, and the stem was too short. Also, while I love the approach Bridgestone took to designing their bikes, I have to sa……

by frank / Aug 27 2009 / 9 posts

I’ve been a fan of Danilo Di Luca a long time, and to tell the truth, was much more suspect of Menchov’s performance at the Giro than I was of Di Luca’s; Menchov rode the last few days of the Giro like it was a Sunday spin, while Di Luca seemed to visibly tire with each attack……

Jaw Dropper: Velominati Jawbones

by frank / Jun 14 2010 / 16 posts

I’m the first to admit that we are probably over doing it on the Velominati Kit article thing. That being said, I simply have to put one more out there, which will double more-or-less as a product review.……

That Is It Obama, I’ve Had It!

by Marko / Jul 7 2010 / 12 posts

When President Obama signed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, aka the huge stimulus package, into law I figured he was probably doing his job and putting some peeps to work. Merckx knows this country needed some help and I voted for the guy so I thought ‘what could possibly go……
