VU 12 cycling utah. com SEPTEMBER 2002 Bike Industry Wobble- naught Fits a Skeptic by David Ward Publisher Tom Coleman, founder and president of Wobble- naught, LLC, called me in early April seeking some exposure for his bike fitting system. Wobble- naught has had success in Idaho and elsewhere, but has had a tough time making any headway in the Utah market. He wanted to do a fit for me, believing that he would gain a convert who could help promote his product. Frankly, I was skeptical. I have been a serious rider and competitor for 18 years, and felt I had refined my set up through the years to where I had a comfortable fit. And comfort, I believed, was what bike fit was all about, that comfort would bring efficiency. Further, at $ 100 for a personal fitting, or $ 50.00 for an on- line fitting where you do your own measurement and adjustments, I questioned whether what I believed would be at best marginal improvements would be worth the cost. Tom came down from Boise, where he is based, and we met at Contender Bicycles where he did a custom fit for me on my road bike. I am not going to detail here all that he did, other than to say we spent almost three hours together ( without interruptions, it would have been closer to two hours) during which time he took numerous body and bicycle measurements and made adjustments to the bike and the cleats on my cycling shoes. To do take the measurements and make the adjustments on the bike, Tom used a laser/ inclinometer mounted on a tripod, a devise designed by Tom, that projects lines on the bike to level it, determine frame size, find the true seat tube angle, determine stem rise and align the leg and feet while I pedaled in a trainer. When done, I took my bike for a spin around the block for a quick test ride. To my surprise, it had a much different feel to it. Because it was different than I was used to, I was not certain if I liked it. But it did seem that the bike handled with a little more ease, and was somewhat more responsive. After a couple of final minor adjustments, and a recommendation from Tom that I get a shorter stem ( which I did within a week), I left with the promise to give this new fit a try for a few weeks. Over the next few weeks, I became a Wobble- naught convert. I quickly adjusted to the new feel of the bike. What I thought was a comfortable position on my bike was nothing more than a position I was used to. This new set up has let me experience a comfort level I have never known before on a bicycle. Equally important, I have experienced improvement in my cycling efficiency and physical well- being. Specifically, I am climbing better than ever. Also, whereas in the past during and after long and/ or hard exertions my thighs have felt like wooden blocks, heavy and unresponsive, that sensation has been noticeably absent this summer. Finally, in previous years, I have experienced substantial neck tightness and pain. This summer, that has been noticeably absent. To be honest, I have lost a lot of weight this spring and summer, and I expect that may partially explain why I feel better while climbing. ( Of course, as anyone who knows me can attest, climbing has always been my Achilles' heel. Now, instead of dropping off like an anchor on a climb, I drop off like a slimmer, lighter anchor!) But the comfortable ride, and absence of wooden thighs and a stiff and painful neck, are all new All 2002 Bikes on Sale! Up To 20% Of f! 762 E. 12300 S. Draper, UT 801- 576- 8844 Come Test Ride One Today! and welcome changes. I have nothing I can attribute them to other than the fitting Tom did for me. Admittedly, my fitting was free. Would I pay $ 100 for it? Yes, I would. The comfort and improvement I have experienced are well worth it. Would I go the on- line route and do my own measurements and adjustments? If money was tight, or there was not a convenient location to have a personal fitting done, then yes, I would. But I do believe a personal fitting by a qualified individual would be preferable. Be prepared, however, to find that certain equipment may have to be replaced in order to gain the ideal fit. As noted in my case, I had to purchase a new stem and some cleat shims. It could be worse. You might even find that the bike itself is too big or too small. So along with the cost of the fit, you may be faced with equipment upgrades to get the full benefit. But then, if you are seeking the benefits of a good fit, and are serious about a comfortable and efficient ride, you are probably already prepared to pay those costs. Another issue that I have not yet asked Tom about concerns additional bikes. I have two road bikes, a tandem and two mountain bikes that I ride regularly. Most people considering a professional fit will be riding at least one road bike and one mountain bike, and many like me, even more than that. To do a fit for each bike really becomes pricy. I have attempted, on my own, to adjust my second road bike to match the first. But the geometry and size are different, and despite my efforts, I can still tell a difference when I ride. The mountain bike and tandem are totally different, of course, so I have done nothing with them. ( Actually, Wobble-naught currently does not have a system for the tandem, but I suspect that it would amount to doing Law Firm of Ward & King Attorneys and counselors at Law DAVID R.

Founded three years ago by Thomas L. Coleman, Wobble- naught's CAD ( Computer Aided Design) system for doing bike fits was developed in recognition of a need that was not being addressed in the biking industry. As stated by Ron LeBlanc, Wobble- naught's public relations director, " Proper fit was talked about in the biking magazines but not many bike shops were involved in providing a ' precision fit'. Most of what was done was by eye or, rarely, some used one or two tools from the Fit Kit or the Serrotta fitting system. We . . . decided that a CAD based system which used precise measurements of hinge points on the body of the rider and the geometry of the bike would/ could provide a ' precision fit'." Wobble- naught's proprietary software system uses body and bike measurements to get a rider into an ergonomically correct position that allows for efficient pedaling and proper handlebar placement. Efficiency is extremely important for all bikers because wasted motion in pedaling creates body stress. Proper handlebar placement is important for rider comfort. Wobble- naught derives it name from reducing the wobble, wasted motion, in the knee rotation to zero. Wobblenaught's fitting can be done personally or on- line. Currently doing personal fittings are the Elephant's Perch in Sun Valley, Barry's in Pocatello, Idaho, and Crystal Yap in Logan, Utah. On- line fittings are done at the Wobble- naught website, www. wobble-naught. com. a separate fit on the captain and the stoker.) Perhaps a personal fit on one, and then using Wobble-naught's on- line program would be the best way to go as that would halve the cost on the remaining bikes. In sum, I was extremely pleased with my bike fitting. It made a great difference in my every ride, making what was already an extremely enjoyable and satisfying sport and past- time even better. Snowbird - continued from page 9 was third- placed Richard Hatch at 47: 26.48, 51.14 seconds behind. Fourth was taken by Osguthorpe's teammate, Sandy Perrins, who was 1: 01.26 behind at 47: 36.60. Meanwhile, Albert's win was never in doubt. The only question was whether she would achieve her goal of establishing a new women's record in this event. When asked about her strategy, Albert stated, " My strategy was, coming into it, I wanted the record back. So I just tried staying with the groups," she stated at the conclusion of the race. Conditions were nearly perfect for the attempt at the record, with a refreshing early morning and clear blue sky. Only a good tail-wind could have made conditions ideal, though in the end Albert did not need one. For Albert, the relatively moderate pace during the first few miles was not welcome. " Unfortunately, they didn't go as fast at the bottom. It helps for the record if they're going really fast. I was amazed, they were even kind of slow on the climbs." Nevertheless, she made it a point to remain close to the front in order to go with the fastest group she could hang on with. In the end, it was enough to secure for Albert both the win and the new women's record. " That was my goal. And I wanted to break it by enough that it could stand for a little while." Only time will tell if that part of her goal was achieved. Osguthorpe's wife, Maren Osguthorpe, while hoping to make it a dual husband/ wife victory celebration, had to settle for second, finishing at 55: 32.60, 4: 40.18 behind Albert. Laura Howat came in at 57: 14.31, 6: 21.89 behind, to claim third. Benita Pullins rounded out the top 4 with a time of 1: 00: 51.31, 9: 58.89 behind Albert's winning time.

Zabriskie at GP Eddy Merckx The USPS duo of Floyd Landis and Dave Zabriskie, Salt Lake City, placed ninth among the 21 teams in the GP Eddy Merckx on August 25th in Brussels, Belgium, finishing 1: 30 behind winners Laszlo Bodrogi and Fabian Cancellara of Mapei- Quick Step. " They ( Landis and Zabriskie) were keeping up with Lance and Ekimov's time until five kilometers to go, but then obviously lost some time," said USPS's Johan Bruyneel. " Dave was riding well and it looks like he has recovered from his crash ( at the USPRO Criterium Championship on August 18). I think he will be good for the Tour of Spain. It was good to see him do a hard effort and get some of his confidence back after his crash." Albert Wins Tour de Toona Idahoan Heather Albert ( Goldy's) won The International ( Tour de Toona) with a stellar performance. Her decisive victory in the seven stage race was sealed in the 161 km third stage with a solo breakaway that gained her a 7' 41" advantage. She also won the difficult 152 km stage six and added a second place finish in stage four. Her efforts further netted her the climbing jersey and a final advantage of 8' 42". Leah Goldstein ( Boise), Sandy Espeseth ( Boise), and Nicole Demars ( Boise) finished fourth, fifth, and eighth respectively. The International took place from July 29- August 4 in Altoona, Pennsylvania and featured riders from the Saturn and Rona Teams. Leipheimer's Tour de France Former Utahn Levi Leipheimer finished eighth overall in this year's Tour de France. Leipheimer, riding for the Rabobank Team, finished 17' 11" behind four time winner Lance Armstrong. Tom Meiser leads the break at the Utah State Crit photo: Dave litis Easier than your roof rack.

This event, which favors the climbing specialists, crests no fewer than 7 peaks as the course winds its way from Boulder to Breckenridge. After the early race craziness died down, the race came down to a nine- man break heading toward Hoosier Pass at 11,547 feet. The combination of distance, altitude, wind and brutal climbing took its toll as the lead group was getting smaller and smaller by the mile. With about 25- miles remaining, Soren Peterson rolled past the Mercury led group and was soon joined by Chris Wherry. With 3 teammates behind, Wherry continued driving up the road until the duo had a gap of over 1- minute. As the pitch increased, about 4- miles from the summit, Navigators' Swindlehurst attacked solo and began to close in on Peterson and Wherry. Peterson was dropped, and coming back quickly, and the chase of Scott Moninger and Jonathon Vaughters wasn't quick to respond. However, as Swindlehurst crested the Pass, Moninger had attacked Vaughters and was just behind Swindlehurst as they started down the other side, about 1- minute behind Wherry. Chris Tell our Advertisers that you saw their ad in cycling utah\ Wherry powered on as Swindlehurst chased hard, followed closely by Moninger. Entering Breckenridge and the large and boisterous crowd, Wherry took the victory in grand solo fashion, with Burke Swindlehurst taking the sprint for 2nd, ahead of Scott Moninger. Swindlehurst said, " as we descended to Breckenridge, if we caught Chris, then Moninger would've countered, so I positioned myself behind Scott for the last lap to take the sprint." Ever gracious, Swindlehurst added, " if there is anyone I don't mind losing a race to, it's Chris Wherry." Wherry's father passed away the week before and Wherry was very motivated to honor him. Swindlehurst won $ 10,000 for his efforts. Swindlehurst on his way to winning the Research Park Criterium on July 21.

With a $ 10,000 cash purse for the main event, some of the nation's best cyclists competed in one of the top three criteriums in the county. Henk Vogels, a member of the Mercury Cycling team and a Colorado resident, broke away from the pack late in the race and won by almost a lap. Chris Wherry, also from the Mercury team and Colorado, cruised to second place. Third place came down to sprint with Kevin Monahan, 7- Up/ Nutra Fig team ( Massachusetts) prevailing over local favorite Remi McManus of the Jelly Belly team. Bill Harris, Salt Lake City, of the X- Men finished fifth. In what has become one of the hottest races in the country, Vogels commended the crowd of 12,000 for their enthusiastic support and said this was the most fun he's had racing in a long time. For his racing efforts, Horner received a check for $ 3,000. The United States Cycling Federation sanctions the Wells Fargo Twilight Criterium. The premier race is a 55- lap criterium, which is run on a 0.6- mile ( 1 kilometer) course through downtown Boise. Racers in the first two events competed for a $ 1,000 purse in prizes for each race with Idahoan Andrew Davis winning the Category 3 race and Jeff Bland of the 9th & 9th Club winning the Category 4- 5 event. Utah Open MTB Championships Over 250 racers battled it out on July 13 for a shot at becoming the Utah Open State Champion. This is the first State Championship that was open to all riders, licensed and non- licensed. A state champion was crowned in each of the 24 categories. With record breaking heat in Salt Lake City, it was a relief to the riders to be riding in the relatively cool 90 degree weather at Solitude. The course was very dry and dusty and provided the perfect challenge to test all the racers skills. The course started with a paved service road climb which took racers up 700 vertical feet to the start of their first descent on the Apex Loop. From this point on racers were on the Big Loop and faced a very technical single- track climb, 1,000 vertical feet, and a dusty technical single- track descent. Pro rider Kevin Day added to his victories and solidified his first in the series place point standings by holding off J. J. Clark, New Moon Media, and winning by close to a minute. The Pro/ Expert Women battled it out for close to 2 hours and ended with Kathy Sherwin, Trek/ ResortQuest, taking the Championship Medal edging out Pam Hanlon, Jans/ Trek, and Elina Felin, Contender. All the racers gave their heart and soul as they competed not only against each other but against the heat, dust and the 9,000 foot elevation. ^•^ agatc* Old £•*** ^ l ^ o n e » lnid< ^<* o6erS^ s 0oTh • Yellowstone ( Without any public cars and no entrance fees) Early April, 20031 Enjoy Fall Cycling in Yellowstone Country!
