News and Workouts This Week!
Thursday, August 28th at 6:30pm: Brick at Cadence Cycle followed by *FREE* Wheel Clinic!
Come meet at Cadence Cycle at 105 E. Michigan Avenue in Saline (734) 429-3700 for a brick workout followed by a really cool wheel clinic. Owner Jon Sherman will have maps, snacks, and beverages available.
Jon writes, "Cadence is proud to sponsor a "Triathlon Tire Clinic" that will include support from major tire suppliers Continental and Vittoria area reps. This clinic will include information about the differences in their tire lines, what makes a "great" triathlon tire, what makes a "great" training tire, and most importantly, how to mount/install both clincher (tires with tubes in them) and tubular tires (non-tubed tires) both from the comforts of your own home and during the race. How about tire pressures? Glue or Tape?? Does Pitstop really work??? Butyl vs Latex???? So many questions?!?!??!
"Bring your own tires and let us show you how to install them! We hope to disspell any rumors and myths about what makes a great tire and what is truly the fastest and most reliable type of tire for triathlon races, long or short course. In addition to Continental and Vittoria tires, you will be able to see first hand some new, yet to be released products from Louis Garneau, Bell, Giro, Look, and more!
"Also to include the normal "Cadence" hospitality and fun! Did we mention discounts??? All products will be available at an EP (employee purchase) price (or close to it) for those interested in stocking up in tubes and tires for the races/training ahead!"
