  • 32 Minis Newsletter Bicycles
    Academy Art Museum academyartmuseum.org MINIS AT HOME volume 1, issue 32 Greetings kids, parents, grandparents, guardians, friends and neighbors! Welcome to issue 32 of Minis at Home newsletter. This is our last newsletter of the school year. We hope you have enjoyed reading the newsletters as much as we have enjoyed preparing them for you. Remember that exploring the natural world, working on projects together with your family, and making time to read are all important activities to keep mind and body healthy. This week’s theme = Bicycles It's that time of year when we are heading outside more and more as the weather becomes warmer and our days become longer. Some of us might enjoy a walk, some of us might ride horses, and some of us may play soccer, but many of us like to ride bikes and scooters best. Bicycle comes from “bi," which means two, and “cycle," which means circle. Wheels, of course, are shaped like circles. Bicycles have 2 wheels, 2 peddles, a frame and handlebars. There is a chain that is connected to cogs. When you push the pedals with your legs, this turns the chain, which then turns the back wheel. You steer the front wheel with the handlebars. The short name for “bicycle” is “bike.” It takes a little practice to balance on a bike. Children who are just learning to balance on a bike may use training wheels that keep the bike from falling over. Very young children can ride a tricycle (or “trike”), which has three wheels and can’t tip at all.

  • “It's Not a Death Wish, It's a Life Wish”
    “I Don’t Want to Die, But I Accept That it Can Happen”: Taking Risks and Doing Gender Among BASE Jumpers by CAITLIN ANDREA FORSEY B.A. (Honours), University of Winnipeg, 2007 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Sociology) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) August 2009 © Caitlin Andrea Forsey 2009 Abstract Using ethnographic data generated through semi-structured interviews with 16 male BASE jumpers, observations of over 1000 BASE jumps (parachuting from fixed objects such as Buildings, Antennas, Spans and Earth), and textual analyses of BASE-related websites, images, and publications, this research provides a sociocultural analysis of the relationship between masculinity and voluntary risk-taking. Drawing on wider debates about modernization, individualization, technology, gender relations, embodiment, and the sociology of the everyday, I illustrate the multifaceted nature of this phenomenon, in addition to the advantages of using a theoretically diverse approach. I link the emergence of BASE jumping in contemporary Western society to military history and the synthesis of two extreme sports, namely, bungee jumping and skydiving. I explore the practices, ethics, technologies, and mentoring styles specific to the practice, with the goal of demonstrating how BASE jumping integrates individuals into social groups. An analysis of the gender regime operating within the BASE community reveals tensions between engagement in the practice and issues of responsibility related to fatherhood, marriage, and other intimate relations. My findings further suggest BASE jumping provides a forum for learning, practicing, and perfecting valued skills within the localized field of the BASE community, in addition to other spheres of personal and professional life.

Eight male elite BMX riders volunteered for the study. Each rider performed three, 10 second maximal sprints on an Olympic standard indoor BMX track. The riders’ bicycles were fitted with a portable SRM power meter. Each rider performed the three sprints using gear ratios of 41/16, 43/16, 45/16 tooth. The results from the 41/16 and 45/16 gear ratios were compared to the current standard 43/16 gear ratio. Statistically significant differences were found between the gear ratios for peak power (F(2,14) = 6.448; p = 0.010) and peak torque (F(2,14) = 4.777; p = 0.026), but no significant difference was found for time to peak power (F (2,14) = 0.200; p = 0.821).
