I had a bike fit on my restored 90’s Allez and feel pretty good about it. I plan to do a Half Iron this summer with it, but will need a serious upgrade for IronMan 2010. He basically wants to convert my road bike into a tribike-moving me forward over the tire. The Bike fit is below, if anyone is interested to give me pointers. Jason is a pro tri and Xterra racer who does fits for Black Diamond Sports Therapy in Washington.
Comments: Work on driving the knee over the handlebars during drill work on trainer. Want to create better hip flexor strength as well as eliminating heel drop.
Corrective Steps (if any):
Mechanical: Left Foot- 3 mm varus tilt/slide foot closer to bike/angle cleat 1mm to allow for heel out.
Right Foot-1.5 mm Varus Tilt/ angle cleat 1 mm to allow for heel out. Saddle- forward 7 mm.
I have not posted in a while. Been hunting, running, enjoying time with Bro in law up from El Sal, and trying to learn Bachata. Kick ass Pareja out of Tampa.
Well last weekend I busted my ass doing 50 miles over about 3.5 hrs on my ten speed, so I decided to bust my ass again coming up on Sept 27th. 100 Miler! Last year I did the 25 mile version of Mike Utleys Bike o’rama on my crappy mountain bike. I also took a shot at a cow elk with my longbow this last Thursday, but just missed. It was a down hill shot up at Grouse Springs. Arrow went right under his belly.
Attended my highschool reunion. It was a trip to see my first prom date. She was dressed right out of 1981, in a white blouse with fluffy shoulders. It seemed like a Stephen King Movie. Saw some others but not that many since I did not socialize much in Highschool.
