    cyclefitcentre.com/pedal pushers December, 2009 ph: 83388911 fx:83388922 newsletter Bloody hell, 10 months since a newsletter! Yeah, it’s been a while and plenty has happened in that time but we’ve been so busy there was no time to write this. What ever is going on in the wider world, the GFC has had a positive affect on us. Consider this a condensed version of the last 10 months. Just the highlights! Jayson Austin breaks the Masters Hour Record. Old news for some of you, but Jays got over last years disappointment in fine style by breaking the existing record by 2.6 kms! He promises to have a real go next time which might just be next year. Note the interesting placement of his SRM computer head Dura Ace Di2 As someone who has owned both Mavic Zap and Mavic Mektronic, I was interested to see Shimano’s iteration of electric shifting and give it a workout. By now you’ve read all about it but from my point of view the most impressive thing is the front derailleur shifting. When shifting up or down with the front derailleur on any bike that I’ve ridden, the rider needs to back off their pedaling effort for a pedal stroke or part pedal stroke to allow the chain to move up to the big ring or down from the big ring. Not with Di2. Off the seat, giving it everything you’ve got, the Di2 front derailleur will just shift without drama………….. and quickly. Coach Alex letti ng Jays know that he’s only 2.5kms up on the THE group set at the moment.

    International OMNIUM MEN 1) Flying Lap (against the clock) The International Omnium event 2) 30 km Points Race (15 km for junior men) is a multi-race event for individuals in track 3) Elimination cycling. Historically the omnium has had a 4) 4 km Individual Pursuit (3 km for junior men) variety of formats. Currently, and for the 2012 5) Scratch Race London Olympic Games, the omnium as defined 6) 1km Time trial by the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) and consists of six events (both timed individual *Timed events are conducted individually while events and massed start pack races) for men the rest are pack style races. and for women that are conducted over two consecutive days. Ideally, the Omnium event showcases the best all-round, consistent rider -- speed, endurance and savvy race intelligence make up an International Omnium champion. Points are awarded in reverse order for each event within the omnium. The rider who finishes first in an event receives one point, the second rider will gets two points and so on down the placings. The winner is the rider with the lowest total points. If two riders are tied on points, the combined time of the three time trials will be the tie breaker to determine final placing. Also, riders must complete every event in the omnium. So if WOMEN a rider were to crash in an early segment and not 1) Flying Lap (against the clock) make it to the finish, they would be eliminated 2) 20 km Points Race (10 km for junior women) from continuing on in the next portion.

  • The Hour Record Game Videopaperpan
    The Hour Record Game The Hour Record for bicycle is about to ride as long distance as possible in one hour on a velodrome. An hour record attempt demands performing on the edge of physical and mental capacity, and in order to beat the record the athlete has to prepare for months and years. As a simulacrum for such an attempt, as of 15th December 2015 at the A-Venue in Gothenburg, the composer, improviser, and in this case cyclist, Per Anders Nilsson challenged himself to cycle on an indoor trainer for 60 minutes at his lactate threshold: an average heart rate of 180 bpm. Video snippets from previous “real” attempts, as well as his heart bpm was displayed and used in the live electronic music that accompanied the event. Nilsson succeeded to meet his challenge, averaging 181 bpm during 60 minutes. As a voice- over to a video documentary of the event, the author shares memories and reflections from the performance, interspersed with quotes from previous and present hour record holders, as well as theoretical perspectives on subject matter. The video displayed is an edited version of the whole performance, approx. 12 minutes. Video: Erik Jeppsson; music: Palle Dahlstedt and Olle Petersson; other voice over: Gino Robair. Biography Per Anders Nilsson (1954) PhD. /Professor, Improvising electronic musician and electroacoustic composer. Studied saxophone and electroacoustic music from 1981-87 at the School of Music at University of Gothenburg. In 2011, he finished his PhD thesis A Field of Possibilities: Designing and Playing Digital Musical Instruments. Was commissioned with the acousmatic piece La gamme voiture XM by GRM in Paris 1999.

Programme Design and Monitoring . 465 5. Conclusion . 466 Abstract Track cycling events range from a 200m flying sprint (lasting 10 to 11 seconds) to the 50km points race (lasting ≈1 hour). Unlike road cycling competitions where most racing is undertaken at submaximal power outputs, the shorter track events require the cyclist to tax maximally both the aerobic and anaerobic (oxygen independent) metabolic pathways. Elite track cyclists possess key physical and physiological attributes which are matched to the specific requirements of their events: these cyclists must have the appropriate genetic predisposition which is then maximised through effective training interventions. With advances in tech- nology it is now possible to accurately measure both power supply and demand variables under competitive conditions.

  • Olympic Sprint, Or Team Sprint
    Spectators Summary of Track Cycling Events: (See the USCF rule book or http://www.usacycling.org/ for all the details.) Mass Start or "Scratch" Race: Not surprisingly, all the riders in a Mass Start race start at the same time. The riders all cover the same distance, with the winner being the first rider to cross the finish line at the end of that distance. Although speed is important, tactics and teamwork are equally vital. Groups of riders often take an early lead, and then work together to increase it while their teammates try to block and slow down the "field." On a small track, the leaders may gain an entire lap on the other riders and then join in with the main group again. Points Race: A variation of the Mass Start race, points are awarded to the top placing riders in a series of sprints contested at various intervals during the race. The winner of a Points Race is not necessarily the first to cross the finish line, but rather the rider who has accumulated the most points during the race. Win-And-Out: A variation on the Scratch race where 1st place is decided on the final lap, however, only the winner is finished. In order to secure 2nd place that rider must be first across the line on the next lap. 3rd place is decided on the lap after that. Typically all other places are also decided by this third and final sprint. This makes for interesting tactics. It can be a very hard race if a rider tries gives their all to win only to be forced to continue and try again the next lap.

  • The Effect of Environmental Conditions on Performance in Timed Cycling Events Dan B Dwyer1
    J Sci Cycling.Vol. 3(3), 17-22 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access The effect of environmental conditions on performance in timed cycling events Dan B Dwyer1 Abstract Air temperature, pressure and humidity are environmental factors that affect air density and therefore the relationship between a cyclist’s power output and their velocity. These environmental factors are changeable and are routinely quite different at elite cycling competitions conducted around the world, which means that they have a variable effect on performance in timed events. The present work describes a method of calculating the effect of these environmental factors on timed cycling events and illustrates the magnitude and significance of these effects in a case study. Formulas are provided to allow the calculation of the effect of environmental conditions on performance in a time trial cycling event. The effect of environmental factors on time trial performance can be in the order of 1.5%, which is significant given that the margins between ranked performances is often less than this. Environmental factors may enhance or hinder performance depending upon the conditions and the comparison conditions. To permit the fair comparison of performances conducted in different environmental conditions, it is recommended that performance times are corrected to the time that would be achieved in standard environmental o conditions, such as 20 C, 760 mmHg (1013.25 hPa) and 50% relative humidity. Keywords: power, air density, temperature, barometric pressure, humidity Contact email: [email protected] (DB. Dwyer) (Heil 2001). There have also been investigations of the optimal position of the cyclist on the bike to minimise 1 Centre for Exercise & Sport Science.
