Developing Cycling Efficiency and Power

Yes, it’s partially true, but if a rider spends many hours in the saddle riding inefficiently, then he spends a lot of time teaching his body to ride the wrong way.
Retail Therapy for Cycle Shops
in Blog Post, Bloggers, Health and Lifestyle, Lifestyle, Robert Thorpe, Robert Thorpe LifestyleThere’s a wide spectrum of styles within cycling retailers. From the legendary old school shop that we’ve known since childhood, where they put the coffee on and we simply chat, to the ultra modern and unfortunately sometimes pretentious retailer, where they keep their main showroom locked and only open it for invited customers – no, believe me, these people exist.
Pirelli PZero Race TLR SL 26
in Blog Post, Cycle Maintainance, Kit Reviews, Robert Thorpe, Robert Thorpe Kit Reviews, TyresThese Pirelli PZero TLR SL tubeless ready tyres have proved themselves to be impeccable at handling, as well as being a superb rolling tyre, meaning that I really have had some sublime rides on this particular example of 26mm rubber. So much so that it’s going to be difficult for me to replace them, as I move further into the Pirelli range on our tests.

For peaking at your next competition it needs to be more done just simply crashing on the sofa.
Red Chilli and Hot Pirelli Tyres

We have some sunny days, during which we can still enjoy riding in shorts, but soon it will get really cold – chilli 😉
When the temperatures do drop lower and the wet and rainy weather will be most likely, it won’t be possible to cycle outside for a while. The snow will come and for safety and for the cold, we’ll have time retreat and to cycle indoors or ski 🙂 – not so bad I guess 😉 .

in Backpacks, Blog Post, Health and Lifestyle, Kit Reviews, Larisa Chinces, Larisa Lifestyle, Larisa Reviews, Lifestyle, Technical Kit, Travel and Technical KitI’ve always loved mtb rides in the mountains of Transylvania, but I also like to explore other parts of my country too. For example, Baiu Mountains with altitudes of 1700-1900 m, located in Prahova county. Transbai is an off-road trail and it is 38 kilometers long and will connect the cities of Azuga and Busteni to Valea Doftanei. In these kind of adventures, it is important to have an adequate physical condition and proper nutrition.
