Interbike 2007 Report 3

By
Reports are starting to come in from the show floor.

We start off today with a good number of pictures from the Fixed Gear Gallery. They are, of course, focused on the fixed/singlespeed/commuter world. Some of products they highlighted were:
  • Cool weather gear from Gator
  • Teschner and Colnago all carbon track frames
  • Fixed bikes from Kind, Felt, SE, KHS, Kona, Co-motion, Salsa and Rocky Mountain
  • Some very sweet looking wheels from Formula
  • A Human-Powered System design competition sponsored by SRAM

BikeRadar.com's Gary Boulanger filed his first report from the show:

  • A new commuter oriented brand from Quality Bicycle Products called Civia
  • An integrated time trial/triathlon hydration system from FSA/Vision Tech
  • A new wheelset from FSA's offroad brand Gravity
  • New models from Lynskey Performance
  • An extremely versatile bike from Ibis called the Tranny
  • A new all-mountain bike from Trek called the Remedy

Cycling News features:

  • A less expensive, more comfortable new model from Cervelo called the RS. It is said to be very similar to the excellent R3, but with a slightly taller head tube and a slightly relaxed rear end.
  • Revamps to several of Titus' most popular models
  • For those seeking a little bit classier look to their bike (or shop from the Orvis catalog) messenger bags, panniers and baskets from Brooks.
  • More unique and urban messenger bags from Knog.

Reasons to Ride #2 - Ice Cream

By
Ice cream may be one of the best post-ride recovery foods that you can find.  A typical half cup serving of ice cream 3 grams of protein, vitamin A and 9 percent of your daily value of calcium. If your body doesn't get around 1000 mg of clacium a day, your fat cells begin storing fat. Calcium also helps build and strengthen bones, lowers the risk of colon cancer and helps to reduce PMS symptoms. In addition, calcium increases your metabolism to help you burn fat. Two to three servings of dairy a day can help you lose 11 to 15 pounds over a year.  When Greg LeMond was asked what he thought about while racing, he replied "Ice cream. God, I dream about ice cream." Since I'm using their picture, I'll throw out a little love to Graeter's - Cincinnati's best ice cream. By the way, they ship nationally. Just ask Oprah.

Lance Breaks His Silence On The Landis Decision

By
When first asked a couple of weeks ago about the decision in the Floyd Landis case, Lance Armstrong basically implied that he didn't keep up with cycling anymore and that he didn't have time to look at it. Now, in a new interview released yesterday, Armstrong blasts the decision of the arbitration panel and states that he feels that Landis would have been exonerated by a jury. It's about time he spoke up. He may be focused on finding a cure for cancer, but he needs to recognize that for most Americans, he is the person that comes to mind when they think about professional cycling.
