What am I to do?
by Ray Garza        RGV Cycling
Seems like this month a lot of accessories, that I use while cycling, have come out with new models. For example iBikeSports with their Newton+ and iPhone 5 case upgrade, GoPro with their Hero 3 (looks awesome) and not to mention Apple with their iPhone 5. What am I to do? Do I upgrade or stay?

I’ve already upgrade to the iPhone 5 but I still have the iPhone 4. Version 4 is still being used with the iBikeSports products (Dash+Power and the Powerhouse app). My sister eventually wants my old iPhone so I guess I’ll start with the…

12/8 Century at Sansom (Fort Worth)

Field is currently limited to a maximum of 100 racers because of permit limitations. We will upgrade the permit if the original 100 sells out early enough to justify the additional expense of a higher level permit with the City.

This is a distance race with a timed cutoff(s) not a timed endurance race. Your finish will be a DNF unless all laps are completed within the allotted time.

Solo (Elite) Century of 6 laps but with a cutoff based on 90 minute laps. I completed a lap today in 1:25 poking along since I hadn’t ridden Sansom in a while. The lap GPS’d at 10 miles but GPS always loses at least 10% so I’m confident that 6 laps will get our metric century. 6 laps is going to be very tough to complete. I don’t expect many solo finishers at all. You don’t have to be Pro or Cat 1 to…

I’d appreciate any info people can share. …(see replies)

Pay Ride

Come on down to our beautiful community for a fun ride through the orchard on beautiful, smooth roads! This is our fourth almost-annual PPP4P, and this year we’re opening it up to select friends (like FWBA!) to see what it’s all about. We’ll have three routes of 10, 20 and 40 miles, and believe it or not, you CAN do 40 miles within Pecan Plantation without doing the same thing twice (well, almost).

The small entry fee will get you a nice, long sleeve t-shirt which I guarantee will be the rarest in your collection. 😉 The proceeds benefit the Green Thumb Garden Club, a group that works very hard to beautify our community. You’ll…
