2Lap -- Who's Ric?

Serotta -- Good point re: fitting. I worked up some enthusiasm on that and just scheduled a fit with the UC Davis Sports Medicine. Man, are they busy... it'll be a month until I can get in there. They fit you on the Serotta fit cycle, then on your bike, and conduct a 'comprehensive pedal analysis w/ SRM', whatever that may be!

My diet's solid already from the weight training. I don't measure exactly anymore, but protein is probably more like 30%, carbs 50%. I eat (almost) no junk.

Aztec,

I'm Ric :-). I'm one of the board sponsors, www.cyclecoach.com. i coach both endurance and (track) sprint riders, from recreational up to world class and pro level.

Please feel free to contact me at either ric@cyclecoach.com or directly through my website.

Happy to help, and thanks 2Lap.

Ric

SRM is set of power output measuring cranks, see www.srm.de. Power output is the most important metric to check and follow to help design a training programme, as it's a direct measure of 'fitness'.

Also, similar is the Power Tap hub (www.power-tap.com)
