Crowe Cycling Chronicles This is my perspective as an old fat southern dude attempting big adventures on gravel & mountain bikes with tips on how to prepare for and plan them.

I hope to make you laugh, but more importantly, motivate you to try.

Ramp Test on Wahoo trainer in basement with my furry workout buddies using TrainerRoad while watching Unbound. Went from FTP 222, after dropping from 270 for months, up to 264! And I only went 80+% since I have a 3+ hour group endurance ride tomorrow. TR’s AI FTP Predictor is wrong! I’ll try again in 6 weeks.

Product Review: HandUp bike clothing

“Party kit for Party pace on Dude fat bike!”

First ride in button up casual shirt & “jorts” (jean shorts) for cycling on an easy spin at local trails while doing trail maintenance and dodging squirrels.

Pros:
-looks cool with Hawaiian design
-ventilates well while riding
-shirt material wicks & stretches
-affordable buying direct
-supports local company
-all clothing items are well made
-makes my arms look jacked! 😬

Cons:
-heats up while sitting still
-tight fit on shorts for thick thighs
-need more style options but I’m picky 😳

Summary
I love the look and feel for shorter casual rides and supports a local biking company.
