Triathlon is the fastest growing sport in cycling. Indeed, the triathlon, the sport of 15% over the last year, if the motorcycle business as a whole. I believe there are good reasons. I started biking for transportation, management of the race, and now drive fast for fun. I have the opportunity, in another perspective, as the steep learning curve for bicycle racing triathlon. What is funny, I think the learning curve of mastering the three sports is more than cycling, but there is a word that is against the learning curve during the acquisition of new entrants into the sport and the word is inclusion.
Competitive cycling is a brutal sport difficult. Design-you find a way for all of your competitors and the work of sprint and beating. Each part is a bicycle in search of an attack or is one. It is much more about the rejection by colleagues, who better for the sport and, of course, the sense of despair at the time it is “fell” for the other levels, and “block”. This is an exclusive, and no wonder people describe as elite cyclists. The mind games in an area difficult, when we know what is happening, and even more difficult if you learn.
Triathletes, on the other hand, are very sociable and want everyone on the swim, bike, run “bandwagon. They like the management of trains and countless hours, but still seems to keep and invite others to join to them. If a race category 5 is a mixture of people who do not know, such as race or even increase, mixed with beautiful athletes in the future in the sport, a triathlon is much better at all levels support athletes at the same time. One race itself and hours. Everybody wins. All the “building” elements of a sport out, it is acceptable and men, the challenge.
If I bike, Sport Triathlon was in children’s shoes. I did not know much, and over the years have acquired, with all due respect for people who are already at 4h00 in the morning to swim for the job is to make the bet, or a walk. Incredible!
From the point of view, I discovered that the things I have on testing for cyclists, road, mountain and follow directly, with one exception. I found that the installation triathletes riding their bikes on twice! First, the way is painful in the legs, with people because AEROBAR too uncomfortable. Secondly, the transition to the output is painful because the muscles are disproportionate.
Triathlon bikes are very sexy looking. I find that part of the aerodynamics under the bike riders and the power of reason in respect of aerodynamics. Consider the installation of your bike and ask these questions. Are you at home the entire event? Are you stiff and difficult during the transition from the race? Have you on the bike that you can not run or swim? What is your time, if you have a bike in focus and maybe even a bike?
Another issue is interesting in this article, and it is the old question: “Do I have a bike race and a tri? My position is, you run at the speed of the riders, swim with swimmers and must be fast a riding course with cyclists quickly. Even if you do not have the project in May, a triathlon, you are comfortable in more than 30 mph is a game with much more comfort when you time to the rhythm of the process. You have a greater choice and can use speed over terrain and the curves of the road. You can ride smoothly and in a straight line, which we all know, is the distance shortest distance between two points. So, is a bicycle race. A good bike, which is fully sorted is a tool that can make a big difference in the perception and use of a triathlon, so no surprise that many triathletes are proud of it, a beautiful machine test time.
