World record of the hour on the track by bike

Vittoria Bussi organizes this fundraiser
My name is Vittoria Bussi and I am a mathematician. And a professional cyclist.
In 2018 I conquered the World Hour Record on a bicycle track: 48.007 km. In September 2021 my record was broken.



Almost ready. Because accessing the hour record involves huge expenses, and to complete the budget that serves to formalize my attempt, I need your help.

Why should you help me?
Because the record is something that goes beyond the sporting result. It represents a possibility that you give me today and that tomorrow will be the dream of a young cyclist; the possibility of believing and going all the way despite the often tortuous roads ahead for those who choose to be an independent athlete and entrepreneur of herself.

Everything I've learned and received over the years, on and off the track, I want to give back .
  • With my mathematical skills I contribute to the aerodynamic and technological studies of the project: I intend to break down the 50km wall to bring the women's record into the same 'window' as the men's.




  • I fight to promote a cultural change so that road safety is no longer a hope but a reality.

I am committed to ensuring that women's cycling is treated on an equal footing with men's. Therefore my desire is to found a cycling academy dedicated to a new generation of athletes, girls who are aware of their value, beyond the result.
Because sport changes lives. I tried it on my skin.


On the track I seem alone against the clock, but I'm never alone because I bring with me all the people who believe in my fight. Thanks to those who want to support me in this new venture .

Because BONT shoes are different from all other cycling shoes

Sale BONT Shoes with 10% discount: Road, off-road, triathlon and time-trial cycling shoes, track
SALE BONT cycling shoes
Because performance and comfort are everything for a cyclist!

Born, managed and designed in Australia, Bont Cycling is driven by the passion to make every ride the best. Designed around the shape of a human foot, according to a scientific and uncompromising approach to performance and injury prevention, BONT shoes are unlike any other, and that's just how it should be. With over 40 years of experience in manufacturing high-performance sports footwear, Bont Cycling is and continues to be the only cycling shoe company that puts your feet first, every time.

BEYOND DESIGN
Bont Cycling knows that every foot is unique, having performed more than 20,000 foot scans in the process of perfecting the last and it is this deep approach to fit that is fundamental for all models in the range. That's why BONT offers 19 sizes in 5mm increments and 4 standard widths, because the right fit means greater efficiency and superior comfort, regardless of distance.

ANATOMICAL FORM OF THE FORE FOOT
Conventional cycling shoes offer a “dress shoe” style shape. Although aesthetically pleasing, this shape can cause constriction of the toes and metatarsals, compressing the nerves between the metatarsals leading the rider to experience dreaded "hot foot" sensations and more serious conditions such as Morton's neuroma. Bont cycling shoes feature true anatomical shaping to allow the foot to function in its most efficient and functionally correct position. The foot is supported in its effort to relax through the metatarsal joints allowing the pedaling force to be distributed over the largest possible surface.

SALE BONT cycling shoes
LONGITUDINAL MEDIAL ARCH SUPPORT
Structural medial longitudinal arch support is provided in all models to stop foot pronation. Excessive pronation is a major contributing factor to incorrect knee tracking and can cause unwanted rotation of the tibia and femur while pedaling leading to injury. Additionally, rotation of the tibia and femur can cause the pelvis to tilt resulting in lower back fatigue.

SALE BONT cycling shoes
SIDE FORE FOOT SUPPORT
The lateral forefoot support of Bont cycling shoes ensures neutral forefoot positioning and alleviates common problems associated with over pronation and supination. These problems often result in mis-tracking of the knees causing injuries along with hip and lower back pain.


ANATOMICAL HEEL
The anatomical heel of the Bont cycling shoes is designed to increase stability during the pull-through and pull-up phase of pedaling. This stabilization is achieved without any mechanical operation or additional tightening of the retention system so that the foot can experience greater comfort through improved blood circulation.

Why do athletes take creatine monohydrate?

Online sale of SANTA MADRE creatine monohydrate for athletes at a discounted price

Online sale of SANTA MADRE creatine monohydrate for athletes at a discounted price

What is Creatine Monohydrate?

Before you start buying Creatine Monohydrate, let's start by clarifying what Creatine is.

Creatine is a chemical normally found in seafood and red meat that our systems produce naturally.

This chemical is capable of providing extra energy to our muscles, so it is mainly associated with improved performance during exercise and muscle mass after consumption.

Although there are no studies that prove it, apart from an improvement in performance, it is also usually used against multiple sclerosis, fatigue, muscle cramps, even against depression.

Benefits of Creatine Monohydrate

Going into more detail, buying creatine monohydrate will bring multiple advantages and benefits to our day to day, thus buying creatine monohydrate, an excellent decision for your athletic development.

Performance improvement

According to several studies, creatine has been shown to provide an increase in strength and athletic performance of 5% to 15%. Which makes it a great option for high intensity sports such as cycling in its disciplines, downhill, BMX, track, athletics and swimming, in its more explosive disciplines such as jumping, speed and middle distance, etc. And in team sports like football, basketball, handball, etc. And like not all racket sports.

Add strength

As demonstrated by the US National Library of Medicine in its study, consuming creatine during an eight-week training period will be able to generate an increase in strength that provides ease of mobility

A lack of creatine in the body can lead to movement problems, decreased mental function, seizures and autism, so maintaining the correct levels of creatine in the body will help improve mobility.

Injury prevention

Creatine monohydrate is able to reduce injuries to ligaments, nerves, bones, tendons, muscles, prevents muscle cramps and reduces the frequency of dehydration.

Why buy Creatine Monohydrate in SANTA MADRE?

At SANTA MADRE we are experts in nutritional supplements that help you improve your performance and achieve your goals, and in the case of creatine monohydrate we are no exception.

When should I take Creatine Monohydrate?

Creatine is a loading supplement, it is true that it does not matter what time of day to take it, for example after training it accompanies your protein shake, the ideal when buying Creatine Monohydrate is to take into account the fact that you must take it daily.

When do you start noticing the effects of creatine?

First of all, you should be aware that its effects will increase as you consume, for example, after a week, its effect will be more noticeable than the first day.

On the other hand, when it comes to gaining muscle mass, no progress will be noticed until after six weeks of consuming creatine monohydrate.

What results will you get by consuming Creatine Monohydrate?

This extra energy that creatine monohydrate provides will make you have greater resistance to efforts, such as sprints, repetitions of weight lifting.

It will also mean an increase in strength and mobility and an improvement in mood, which will also affect the motivation you present to train, perform exercises and feel good about yourself.

Purchasing creatine monohydrate and consuming it afterwards can also improve cognitive abilities, it also prevents bone and muscle loss.

How long should you take creatine monohydrate?

Although creatine monohydrate can be very useful and a great help in achieving goals, if certain guidelines are not followed it can also be harmful.

This supplement is directly focused on aiding in the performance of your workouts, keep in mind that being a loading supplement it is important to take it every day whether you train or not.

The intake can be maintained as long as we want our preparation to last, regardless of the time, as creatine is a natural substance in the body.

Although it is recommended to drink two liters of water a day in addition to purchasing creatine monohydrate, it should also be noted that it will be of great help during the periods in which it is consumed.

Can Creatine and Protein be taken together?

Although there is some fear, or respect for the idea of mixing these two supplements, as long as their consumption is responsible, there is nothing to fear, far from being harmful, both supplements are 100% safe , it can be very helpful to combine both substances.

Together they are able to achieve muscle gain in less time, but it should be taken into account that a proper and balanced diet must be maintained and supplements taken as an extra during training

If you make good use of them, they will be able to provide an increase in your performance and reduce the fatigue you may suffer during training, this protein and creatine blending treatment is usually seen in the physical preparations of soccer players, tennis players, athletics, cycling, etc.

We take this opportunity to remind you that if you are thinking of buying Creatine Monohydrate and Protein, you will find the highest quality and many other top supplements in SANTA MADRE.

Creatine monohydrate and its benefits for the brain

Buying creatine monohydrate will not only help you in your sports performance, muscle building or increase strength, but will also provide you with brain energy.

What do we mean by brain energy? Well, with the replacement of ATP, which is a cellular unit of energy, that creatine provides, among all the benefits mentioned, it also assumes a basic function of the metabolic networks of the brain.

In conclusion, consuming creatine will also help you in your brain, improving memory, intelligence and contributing to faster mental processing

Bont Vaypor S cycling shoes: technical details and performance

Online sale at discounted price Bont Vaypor S cycling shoes: technical details and performance

Online sale at discounted price Bont Vaypor S cycling shoes: technical details and performance

The Bont Vaypor S represent the flagship product of the Australian company.
They are shoes designed for competition, made with cutting-edge materials and technologies, but just look carefully at the shape to understand that it is a shoe that is decidedly different from its main competitors.

Online sale at discounted price Bont Vaypor S cycling shoes: technical details and performance

The distinctive elements of the Vaypor S are the shape of the forefoot and the particular unidirectional carbon sole which can also be thermoformed at home.
To these is added a wide range of possible customizations (some with a surcharge), difficult to find on the market.

We talked about it in detail in the video below:

1- Technical details

– Materials used: 9.5
The Bont Vaypor S are top-of-the-range shoes and, as you would expect, they are made with top quality materials.

The highlight is the Toray unidirectional carbon monocoque sole , worked with a specific proprietary technique, which allows the use of little resin and, therefore, reducing weight.

The upper is in Durolite, the padding (rather minimal) in Memory Foam, the insole in thermoformable Eva.

Online sale at discounted price Bont Vaypor S cycling shoes: technical details and performance

Online sale at discounted price Bont Vaypor S cycling shoes: technical details and performance

– Closing system: 10
The locking system is entrusted to two latest generation Boa Li2 rotors.
Compared to the previous IP1 they are lighter, smaller in size and offer even more precise micro-adjustments, both when it is necessary to tighten and loosen the clamp.

Combined with the tongue that wraps around the entire neck area and the heel structure, they allow for very firm retention, but without creating pressure points.

Online sale at discounted price Bont Vaypor S cycling shoes: technical details and performance

– Permitted settings: 10
The Boa double rotor, in my opinion, remains the best solution for those who love well-fitting and easy-to-adjust shoes at every stage of running or training.

The vote goes beyond the adjustments allowed by the closure system and takes into account the possibility of customizing the fit thanks to thermoforming , which allows you to slightly modify all the carbon parts placed on the perimeter of the shoe, with variations of state up to 1-2 mm .
In this way it is possible to obtain an "almost made-to-measure" fit.

Online sale at discounted price Bont Vaypor S cycling shoes: technical details and performance

Thermoforming can be easily done at home by preheating the oven to 70°. Attention, it is important to use the normal oven and not the microwave and not to exceed 70°. At this point you can put the shoes in the oven for 20 minutes and then take them off, put them on and shape them around your foot.
The operation can also be performed more than once and repeated over time.

Below you will find a video with a detailed explanation of how to carry out thermoforming:

– Price: 6
The retail price of the standard version is 399 euros.
Tall, but all in all not very different from that of the top of the range of most other brands and partly justified not only by the quality of the materials, but also by the possibility of choosing, when ordering, between 4 different plant widths.
To these are added 2 more, which however fall within the semi-customization project, which among other things also allows you to customize the color and choose shoes with different sizes between right and left.
The price of this option is still quite interesting, since we are talking about 50 euros more.

Online sale at discounted price Bont Vaypor S cycling shoes: technical details and performance

For the full custom option, with a shoe made around the mold of your foot, however, the price rises a lot and is close to 1,000 euros. Stuff for professionals or designed for those with foot problems or very special needs.

Final score (from 1 to 10): 8.87

Online sale at discounted price Bont Vaypor S cycling shoes: technical details and performance

2 – Performance

– Comfort fit: 9.5
It is the strong point of the Bont Vaypor S, always bearing in mind that these are shoes designed for competition and, therefore, very rigid.

The merit is largely of the wide plant and the particular shape of the tip (called Ergoshell), very wide and rounded. It is an ideal shape for those with toes of similar length, but above all designed to minimize pressure in the metatarsal area, even when the feet are in the push phase.
This allows you to limit the annoyance that is often felt on the plant, especially over long distances.
Be careful though, because if you use customized insoles it will be difficult to use them even with Vaypor S, precisely because of the particular conformation, which obviously also affects the insole (photo below).

Online sale at discounted price Bont Vaypor S cycling shoes: technical details and performance

Added to this, we remind you once again, the possibility of choosing between 4 different widths of the sole, to obtain an ideal fit for the shape of your foot.

In comparison to most competition shoes the comfort is above average. They will be even more appreciated by those with particularly wide feet.

Online sale at discounted price Bont Vaypor S cycling shoes: technical details and performance

– Sole stiffness: 10
As anticipated at the beginning of the article, the unidirectional carbon sole is another of the strengths of the Bont Vaypor S.
The use of low quantities of resin makes it possible to reduce weight, obtaining a stiffness/lightness ratio of the highest level.

Also noteworthy is the stack, i.e. the thickness of the sole, which is only 3.6 mm , one of the smallest on the market. As is now known, the more contained the thickness of the sole, the better the biomechanics of pedaling and the transmission of power.
It is precisely due to the reduced thickness that, compared to some other models, it may be necessary to slightly lower the saddle.

Online sale at discounted price Bont Vaypor S cycling shoes: technical details and performance

Online sale at discounted price Bont Vaypor S cycling shoes: technical details and performance

The carbon sole also envelops part of the upper, especially in the heel area, increasing the rigidity of the entire structure and limiting unwanted movement of the foot in pronation and supination.

Online sale at discounted price Bont Vaypor S cycling shoes: technical details and performance

- Weight: 9.5
The measured weight, in size 44, is 246 grams per shoe.
They are not among the lightest ever, but the weight is still very low, also in relation to the use of two Boa rotors.

Ventilation: 10
It is one of the added values of Vaypor S.
I haven't tried them yet in the warmer months, but the impression is that the ventilation is definitely above average. This is possible thanks to generously sized holes positioned throughout the toe area, perhaps questionable from an aesthetic point of view, but very functional.

To these are added 4 air intakes positioned on the front of the sole and other small slits in the arch area.

Online sale at discounted price Bont Vaypor S cycling shoes: technical details and performance

Online sale at discounted price Bont Vaypor S cycling shoes: technical details and performance

Online sale at discounted price Bont Vaypor S cycling shoes: technical details and performance

– Fit (which size to choose?): 10
The fit of the Vaypor S, in terms of length, is similar to that of the new Shimano S-Phyre 902, therefore, to be clear, not very generous.
As for numbers, there is ample choice, since they range from 36 to 50 , with half numbers between 40 and 47.

The real plus of Bont shoes, however, is the possibility to choose, when ordering, between 4 different sole widths (narrow, wide, standard and Asian fit), without any extra charge.
To these are added two other options (double wide and double Asian fit), which however fall within the semi-custom project and therefore involve an increase in cost.

On the Bont website there is a specific section in which it is explained precisely how to take the measurement of one's foot in order to correctly choose the number and width of the sole.

Final grade (from 1 to 10): 9.8

OVERALL MARK (from 1 to 10): 9.33

Online sale at discounted price Bont Vaypor S cycling shoes: technical details and performance

In conclusion

The Bont Vaypor S are competition shoes with a very specific shape and characteristics.
They sacrifice something in terms of aesthetics (which is always subjective), but their structure allows you to find an enviable balance between stiffness, fit anatomy, comfort and pedaling biomechanics.

They are at the top of the category for comfort and ventilation.
They also stand out for the wide availability of sizes, but the real added value is the possibility to choose between 4 different sole widths, without extra charge.

These are two sets with tubeless ready carbon rims, which take advantage of many of the characteristics of the top-of-the-range version of the Italian brand, i.e. the RS4DB, but which are offered at a lower price.

We tell you right away that the cost is not among the lowest ever on the market, but it is interesting for the refinement of the components used and for the goodness of the technical solutions that characterize these wheels.

The characteristics of the circle

The main difference between the two models lies in the height of the profile: 45 mm for the SL4DB and 62 mm for the SL6DB.
The SL4DBs appear as more versatile and all-round wheels, the SL6DBs as wheels decidedly more oriented towards aerodynamics and fast races.

In both cases, the internal width of the rim is 19 mm , which is rather small by current standards.
A solution that allows you to save a few grams of weight, which guarantees better response promptness and which will make the happiness of those who don't like tires with too large a section.
The 19 mm internal channel, in fact, allows you to use 700×25 or 700×26 tires without problems, in addition to the now widespread 700×28.

In addition to the height, there is another substantial difference between the two models: the SL4DBs have a rim with an asymmetrical profile , while on the SL6DBs the profile is perfectly symmetrical (photo below).
The asymmetrical rim allows the spokes to have more similar angles between the right and left sides, increasing the overall stiffness of the wheel, as well as its reliability.
In the case of the SL6DB, this is an unnecessary solution, as the higher profile (and therefore a shorter spoke length) already helps to compensate for the different angle of the spokes, which is therefore less evident.

The rims are tubeless ready and can be used both with tubeless ready tires and with clincher and inner tube.

Hub and spokes

The hub represents one of the main upgrades compared to the previous models (SL62 and SL45).
The SL4DB and SL6 DB, in fact, are equipped with the RS hub which derives directly from that of the more prestigious RS4DB.
Bodice and external workmanship are practically identical and very refined. The only thing that changes are the bearings, no longer ceramic, but in steel.

RS stands for "Rifling Design", a mechanical process that creates a series of grooves that cross the entire body of the hub longitudinally.
These grooves have a dual function.
The first concerns aerodynamics , since with the rotation of the hub these "lines" generate micro turbulence and reduce aerodynamic resistance.
The second is related to the so-called Magnus effect : in this case the lining creates a downforce that pushes the wheels downwards, with the aim of obtaining more stability, especially at high speeds.

The freehub body uses a double ratchet system, i.e. two opposing rings with 20 teeth each. The smaller ratchet is located in the freehub body, while the larger one is positioned inside the hub flange for better power transmission and quicker engagement.

As for the spoking, both models are assembled with 24 steel spokes , straight pull, both at the front and at the rear. A choice that favors sturdiness and stiffness.
Compared to the RS4DB, here we find external aluminum nipples, less beautiful and aerodynamic, but more practical.

New Deda SL4DB and SL6DB wheels: weights and prices

The measured weight of the new Deda SL4DB wheels is 1,530 grams (710 grams for the front and 820 grams for the rear), including tape and tubeless valves.
The SL6DBs, on the other hand, tip the scales at 1,650 grams (770 grams for the front and 880 grams for the rear).

They are available with bodies for Shimano, Sram XD-R, Campagnolo, Campagnolo 13S.

NEW GARMIN FENIX 7
Stamina:
is an active function for running and cycling profiles and tells you, when you start a race or a workout, what your range is, i.e. how long or how many kilometers you can run.
As you progress and based on your pace and heart rate changes, the system updates the forecast for kilometers and time. The interesting side is that you are provided with two data, one in real time and one "potential", which allow you to understand with a quick glance what your "energy condition" is and, consequently, establish your strategy.
This allows you to always give your best, avoiding running out of energy before the work session or the race (and therefore running into problems and risks of injury), but reaching your goal by giving everything.

vendita online i nuovi Garmin: Fenix 7S, Fenix 7 e Fenix 7x nella versione Standard, Solar e Solar Sapphire. Touch screen
In the new Garmin Fenix 7 it can now also be used with a touchscreen. The system is fast and useful, especially for scrolling through data and maps, customizing screens and typing texts. Real-time settings from Garmin Connect All Garmin Fenix 7 settings can be managed directly from your smartphone with the Garmin Connect app. So we can use the app without having to navigate through the keys.

Multi-band GPS
With this function, generation 7 Garmin Fenixes significantly increase the accuracy of the GPS track. The reception of the additional L5 frequency guarantees greater precision even in conditions of poor sky visibility and minimizes positioning errors due to the multipath effect (the anomalous reflection of the satellite signal in the presence of obstacles or reflective surfaces such as water or mountains) .

Flashlight
the Garmin Fenix 7X also has a very intense LED light that allows you to illuminate the road or paths and it is possible to activate it so that, when we run, the device follows the movement of the wrist and emits white light when the arm is forward, red when the arm is back.

The Garmin Fenix 7 also introduces a new heart rate sensor on the wrist. Completely new in design with sensor placement aimed at better optical reading, it is now even more precise and efficient. The bottom of the case has been redesigned to protect it from solar infiltration.

Map management
To facilitate the management of maps and the optimization of the internal memory, some models do not have preloaded maps but give you the possibility to download via wi-fi only those of the areas that interest you. While, in the case of the Sapphire versions, the maps are all already contained in the 32 GB memory of the device.

POC presents the new Kortal Race MIPS and Devour helmets

The Kortal Race MIPS is a brand new all-mountain bike helmet packed with advanced safety, innovation and technology. It is also the first helmet ever to feature the recently presented Integra MIPS. The Devour takes a new approach to vision and features POC's Clarity lens technology. Integrated with exceptional coverage and eye protection, it has been designed for the needs of modern off-road and on-road riders.

The Kortal Race MIPS and Devour Clarity, which recently received the Design and Innovation Awards, are available for purchase online and in-store from today.

Commenting on the new releases, Oscar Huss, Head of Product, POC , said: “ Today mountain bikes are more capable than ever, offering everything from XC efficiency to declining DH performance. Riders now have a host of new opportunities that we wanted to enhance with a new benchmark in helmet and goggle protection. With a host of integrated technologies, safety solutions and brand new innovations, Kortal and Devour represent a significant advance in terms of protection and vision. "



Inspired by the Tectal, which introduced POC's vision for trail helmets, integrating innovative safety technology into a lightweight, well-ventilated helmet, the Kortal Race MIPS takes POC's ideas further. It sets a new benchmark for mountain bikers at home with the most aggressive and capable all-mountain bikes. The helmet features a brand new design, a patented detachable visor system to protect the rider's neck, aramid bridges for strength, a Medical ID NFC chip that uses digital technology to allow the helmet to speak for you when you can't ™. A RECCO® reflector that allows you to be searchable over large areas, especially in mountain environments. The Kortal Race MIPS is also the first helmet in the world to use the brand new Integra MIPS system, an almost invisible rotational impact protection system.

To further extend its protection, the Kortal Race MIPS is a certified speed pedelec helmet, which exceeds the Dutch standard NTA8776, which tests helmets at higher impact speeds than using the standard bicycle. The visor of the helmet has several positions to allow you to store the goggles underneath when not in use. And of course it goes perfectly with the new Devour Clarity sunglasses and even has a rear "eye garage" for storage. The Kortal, which will feature a reduced list of technology, will also be released alongside the Kortal Race MIPS.


Oscar Huss, Head of Product, POC, continued: “Developing world-leading protection is the real reason why POC exists. This, coupled with our clear mission, opens up a whole new world of innovation and opportunity. Kortal Race MIPS and Devour Clarity have benefited from this approach and present a number of integrated technologies and new ideas that have been recognized with innovation awards. Being recognized with these awards is humbling and inspires us to keep looking for new solutions and innovations, to always consider things that have never been done before ”.

Devour sunglasses , developed with exceptional coverage, give a new sense of freedom and flexibility and are comfortable both on the road and on the trail. The sunglasses feature fully adjustable nose pads and temples that make it easy to find a secure fit for each head shape and allow the rider to create a more personalized fit. Surface details will be crystal clear thanks to Clarity lens technology that optimizes the color spectrum and the frame design maximizes peripheral vision and allows for significant airflow. Devour Clarity offers full UV protection (UV400) and features a Ri-Pel lens coating that protects against dirt, oil and water and a scratch-resistant coating.

Garmin pedals for power measurement and advanced cycling dynamics analysis

Garmin officially introduces its new family of pedals for power measurement, for both cycling and mountain biking. The innovative Rally RK, Rally RS and Rally XC have been extensively tested, even in extreme conditions, and offer compatibility with Look Keo, Shimano SPD-SL and Shimano SPD bindings, for both on-road and off-road riding. Precise, reliable and easy to install, they have a new design that makes them performing and at the same time robust and resistant.

In the modern language of cyclists, professionals or amateurs, the meaning of "power" has been widely assimilated, so much so that today talking about watts is no longer a taboo. And among the main players who have contributed to the spread of this technical culture, there is certainly Garmin which today announces Rally , its new series of power sensors. In addition to the power values, the new pedals have been designed to measure cadence and to analyze all the advanced cycling dynamics, such as right / left leg balance, power phase and other data of interest to all cycling enthusiasts on road and mountain bike, up to the gravel world.

Highly technological and performing tools, therefore, which will accompany the athletes in their preparation, to obtain better and better results.

« We know that cyclists and bikers train to improve their performance every day, and for this reason we have designed and created not just one, but a real complete family of power sensors that they can rely on to achieve their goals. - comments Stefano Viganò , CEO of Garmin Italia - These pedals have undergone numerous tests and tests, taking their use to the limit, to ensure high levels of reliability in measuring power which, as we all know, is a reference value important in the preparation of every enthusiast, even in the amateur world ».

The project managers who developed the Rally family drew on a group of over 100 testers from various disciplines, who pedaled an overall mileage equal to five times around the Earth.

Three models for one passion

The Rally power sensors are available in three different versions, two for road cycling and one for off-road cycling. Each of them is available in two further types: one with double pedal detection (200) and one with single detection (100).

  • Rally RK100 and Rally RK200 : designed for road cycling and compatible with Look Keo cleats.
  • Rally RS100 and Rally RS200 : designed for road cycling and compatible with Shimano SPD-SL cleats.
  • Rally XC100 and Rally XC200 : designed for off-road cycling and compatible with Shimano SPD bindings.

Designed with the sensor incorporated in the spindle, the models of the Rally series ensure precise and reliable measurement of the power data during any training or competition.

DOUBLED POWER . With the dual sensor pedals Rally RK200, Rally RS200 and Rally XC200 athletes can independently analyze the values expressed by the right and left leg, so as to intervene in case of discrepancies or substantial differences in the expression of power between the two limbs. With the ability to measure cadence, power, left / right leg balance and advanced cycling dynamics, they show how and where most power is produced, helping cyclists and bikers understand their strengths and strengths. of weakness, so as to be able to intervene in a targeted manner. Another analysis that the new Garmin pedals allow concerns the time spent pedaling seated and standing, thus showing the effectiveness of the two positions. Last, but certainly not least, the Rally sensors allow you to accurately measure in which point of the foot the most force is applied, and therefore power, so as to be able to suggest a better positioning of the shoe cleats.

INDOOR TRAINING . The recent success of training in indoor cycling has brought many cyclists closer to knowing their power value in a more or less precise way. Depending on the model used, smart trainers are able to provide this parameter to those who ride at home. Those who want to have a super precise evaluation data on their performance, can associate the power data of the Rally via Bluetooth ® or ANT + protocol to interactive eTraining programs such as Tacx Training app or others from third parties.

SINGLE DETECTION POWER . Garmin offers a power sensing approach solution with the single sensor models Rally RK100, Rally RS100 and Rally XC100 , which read only instantaneous, average, maximum power and cadence. If the user subsequently decides to switch to a dual sensor system, because he wants to expand the critical knowledge of his way of pedaling in a surgical manner, he can do so by purchasing a second pedal with integrated wattage detector; as a result, a world of new metrics dedicated to him will open up.

A COMPLETE NETWORK . With the new Rally series, Garmin provides users with a real network of tools to monitor their performance on the pedals. The new power sensors can in fact be associated with the Edge line cycle computers (where compatible) and with the Garmin Connect ™ app, through which it is possible to download all the recorded data, analyze them and compare them with each other, to plan your workouts even more accurate and efficient. They can interface with the most popular indoor training platforms, such as the Tacx Training app, or those of Zwift and TrainerRoad.

EASE OF INSTALLATION AND EXTENDED DURATION . The Rally power sensors mount like any other pedal, and can therefore be moved quickly from one bike to another. A particular novelty concerns their portability: to allow those who are divided between on-road and off-road training, Garmin has designed a spindle for Rally that makes them easily transferable to different pedal bodies. In this case the user will have to purchase the appropriate kit separately.

The new Rally power sensors feature a replaceable battery with up to 120 hours of life, ensuring extended use before it needs to be replaced.

Available right now in the best stores, the new Garmin Rally power sensors have a recommended retail price that varies depending on the type of model.

Second generation Cloudstratus on-running running shoes

Second generation Cloudstratus on-running running shoe

When it comes to long-haul mileage, comfort is king. That’s the guiding philosophy behind the new Cloudstratus – engineered to deliver supreme cushioning on the road, whether your long run is a couple of miles or a marathon. The second-generation Cloudstratus is where maximum cushioning meets maximum performance and the latest evolution of our shoe with a double-stack of CloudTec®, now gives you even more confidence to conquer your runs. If you’re looking for more comfort to go the distance, the Cloudstratus is for you. Here’s how we created the perfect performance shoe that offers maximum cushioning over medium to long distances.

Second generation Cloudstratus on-running running shoeDouble impact

The original Cloudstratus was the first shoe to feature two layers of CloudTec® and we’ve improved on that winning formula, extending the double layer of Cloud elements into the forefoot and adding our Helion™ superfoam. It’s a powerful combination that delivers even more cushioning and a more dynamic take off. Maximum protection, without sacrificing that all-important responsive feel.

Wider ride

We wanted even more runners to enjoy the benefits of that unique max cushioning on their road runs, so we also totally re-engineered the bottom unit to include a wider forefoot. That wider forefoot improves the overall support without stifling speed, and while the Cloudstratus isn’t a support shoe like our Cloudace and Cloudflyer, the result is an even more cushioned sensation with additional support. It takes even more impact out of asphalt. All without slowing you down.

Second generation Cloudstratus on-running running shoeRelease the pressure

The more energy you have, the further you can go. But providing energy-saving responsiveness and the kind of cushioned protection that keeps legs and feet feeling fresh, is a tough nut to crack. That’s where a trio of unique On innovations come in, creating a midsole that’s big on energy return, durability and road protection. Those double stacked layers of Helion™ superfoam work with connected forefoot Cloud elements to enhance vertical and horizontal cushioning, distributing pressure as your foot lands, then supporting a powerful push-off as our carefully tuned polypropylene Speedboard® drives you forward. “Along with a slightly stronger rocker design in the forefoot, the Speedboard® supports a very smooth transition from heel to toe,” says Edouard Coyon, Head of Footwear Product Management at On. “But it also provides the snappiness or dynamism that’s part of the DNA of all On shoes. Together this helps the shoe to feel a bit more dynamic than its competitors.” The result: less impact, more running.

Second generation Cloudstratus on-running running shoeFlex appeal

“People who run longer, beginner runners and anyone who just wants more cushioning and comfort, tend to like a bit more room in the forefoot,” says Edouard. “So we wanted to make sure the upgraded shoe offered a more generous forefoot fit.” In addition to the wider forefoot, we’ve refined the inner sock construction and improved the heel hold, to create instant step-in comfort and reliable custom fit that'll make you want to run twice as far.

“We wanted to give runners confidence and create a shoe that’ll be your best friend, with superb comfort you can really rely on. We worked hard on the details to ensure maximum comfort and a really cosy foot feel

For example, the full engineered mesh has a limited number of overlays to avoid unnecessary pressure points. The heel has additional foam for better hold and plush comfort. And the anatomically engineered mesh upper is designed to be soft and strong, optimized for comfort and breathable for airflow. But made with movement in mind. We also kept the popular star-lacing configuration from the first-gen Cloudstratus. This recruits more mesh from the shoe’s flank, wrapping the foot for a secure fit and supporting your natural motion. Where your foot flexes, the shoe flexes too. And that makes for a natural ride no matter how long you’re in the saddle.

Second generation Cloudstratus on-running running shoeOutsole

The CloudTec® outsole has evolved too. The Cloudstratus features a high-performance rubber grip compound that delivers unshakeable road hold and the kind of durability that gives you the confidence to go further.

Treading lighter

As part of On’s bigger commitment to reduce environmental impact, we’re working hard to create shoes that perform for the planet too. In the all-new Cloudstratus, we’ve used twice the amount of recycled material than in previous generations. That means 70% of the polyester is recycled and 20% of the entire shoe is made from recycled materials. And we’re working on the rest.

How to choose the perfect wetsuit

5 TIPS FOR CHOOSING THE PERFECT WETSUIT


Every athlete is an individual, and open water swimming is no different. One swimmer's needs can be hindrances or hindrances for another. This is why it's important to know what gear you need, especially when it comes to your wetsuit. The wrong choice can negatively affect your technique and your performance in the water.

To choose your perfect wetsuit, you need to look at various factors; above all, you need to know yourself well as a swimmer and athlete. Knowing what your needs are, as well as your preferences, strengths or weaknesses, is essential when choosing among the models.

We will offer you five factors to consider when choosing your wetsuit: your swimming level and technique, the performance of the wetsuit, your goals as an athlete, the size and finally the price.

YOUR SWIMMING LEVEL, A DECIDING FACTOR IN CHOOSING A WETSUIT


Knowing your swimming level is the first point you need to consider when considering purchasing a new wetsuit. Obviously, those new to open water will not have the same needs as an experienced swimmer with several kilometers behind him.

If you are just starting out, your technique is probably not fully perfected yet. You will need more buoyancy, especially in the leg area, to lift your hips and help position your whole body correctly, achieving the least hydrodynamic restriction possible. In this case, wetsuits such as Predator or 3.8 are recommended and will be the most suitable for your needs.

If, on the other hand, you are an experienced swimmer and technique is your strong point, you will seek maximum flexibility. You might want to consider a wetsuit like the Alpha that fits your body like a second skin, allowing you to enjoy every swim.

FEATURES SUITABLE FOR YOUR NEEDS


Once you have a good understanding of your swimming level, you can then evaluate the performance of each wetsuit model and make a decision based on your needs. You should look into the following aspects:

● Flexibility: More flexibility means more freedom of movement.
● Buoyancy: As discussed above, a wetsuit with more or less buoyancy can help or damage you depending on your swimming technique.
● Hydrodynamics: For swimmers with a less refined technique, greater buoyancy will help you correct your posture, achieving a more hydrodynamic position.
● Thermal Insulation: If you love swimming in cold water or if you enjoy swimming in the ocean even during the winter months, the amount of thermal insulation a wetsuit can provide will be a key factor to consider. The new RS1 Thermal, for example, is the wetsuit that offers the greatest thermal protection of the entire Orca range. It has a specially developed inner lining to maximize heat retention in open water swimming, which will allow you to swim longer in lower temperatures.
● Visibility: an important point to consider if you are used to long training sessions in open water. In addition to the buoy as basic equipment, a wetsuit that makes you visible to boats, surfers and other swimmers will provide you with greater safety, allowing you to always be located. This is the case with wetsuits such as the Open Water Core Hi-Vis or the Open Water SW.

WHAT ARE YOUR GOALS AS A SWIMMER?


Another factor to consider when choosing your wetsuit is your goals as an athlete. Do you want a wetsuit for recreational swimming? For competitions? For participation in a triathlon or an Ironman?

So, depending on your motivations and your goals, you will choose a wetsuit that suits your swimmer needs from the triathlon range, the open water range or even the swimrun range.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT SIZE


Once you have chosen a wetsuit model based on your needs and goals, you need to determine your size. You can consult the following guide or get advice from an expert.

In general, the suit should fit very well, without being baggy. This is to prevent water from entering and creating the unpleasant "swelling effect" while swimming. A wetsuit that doesn't fit and doesn't fit your body well, whether it's too big or small, can produce unnecessary chafing and discomfort during your sessions at sea.

THE PRICE MUST NOT BE THE DETERMINING FACTOR


When it comes to wetsuits, a high or low price doesn't mean a wetsuit is better or worse. That's why it's important to note that a wetsuit shouldn't be chosen for its price, but rather for everything mentioned above: its performance and your needs and goals as an open water swimmer. Just because it's the most expensive model doesn't mean it's the best choice for you.

We hope these five tips have been helpful in clearing up any doubts about choosing the right wetsuit for you.

How sustainable is the Ironman really?

ironman

With the IronMan of Cervia which ended less than a month ago, that of Jesolo next weekend and finally the IronMan of Sardinia at the end of October, the most awaited events by the triathletes of the Bel Paese will end. Of course, the sensations that you have passing under the arch of the finish line are certainly indescribable but, once the finish line has been cut, one wonders what is the environmental impact of this mega event that involves thousands of athletes and companions.

Referring only to the IronMan of Emilia-Romagna 2022, this saw the participation of more than 6000 athletes from over 80 different nations, registering about 30 thousand tourist presences over the weekend of 17 and 18 September. What impact has all this had on the territory and the surrounding nature?

The guidelines of sustainability are dictated on a global level
At an international level, the World Triathlon Organization itself continues to work hard to minimize the impact of sporting events on the planet and has launched several green-themed initiatives and guidelines in recent years. In the latest document released on sustainability, the World Triathlon has structured some guidelines to help its partners and Local Organizing Committees to adopt more environmentally friendly approaches in hosting events.

The organization's Sustainability Guidelines define a set of best practices and approaches for each stage of the competition, from providing public transport to waste management. This attention throughout the event allows the events to be more and more green year after year, improving the conservation of the environments.

At the Italian level, all major events such as IronMan must comply with the international standard ISO 20121, which allows us to minimize the negative impact on the environment, but still seems not to be enough. This has been visible, for example, in many major summer events on the Italian territory which, even respecting all the foreseen rules, have sparked strong controversy on the part of environmentalists.

Why then are these events still allowed?
While on the one hand the environmental impact of the events is still uncertain, the economic one is very favorable for the locations hosting the events. The income generated by the IronMan of Cervia last September was estimated at around 30 million euros for the entire Riviera Romagnola, an amount that leads the Municipality of Cervia and the Emilia-Romagna Region to renew their commitment with the American organization.

What Ironman is doing to reduce the environmental impact of events
Each event differs from the others by marrying the needs and customs of the different realities in which the events take place. The greenest Iron Man seem to be overseas where a specific plan of sustainable, social and financial objectives is defined.
For example, in the last IronMan in Boulder in Colorado, there were multiple sustainability objectives including the implementation of public transport specifically for the event and the choice of 100% recyclable, compostable and locally reusable materials.

Even the event in Cervia was not far behind with the use of compostable glasses in supplies, extreme attention to recycling and the establishment of special areas where to throw waste, under penalty of disqualification of the athlete. Another thing that the American organization worked on was to optimize energy consumption, especially in a period of crisis dominated by ever higher electricity prices.
The next goal of the World Triathlon Organization will be to achieve carbon neutrality for every sporting event. The road is still long but the steps taken so far are important.

"Whatever the starting point, the main goal is a significant reduction in the climate footprint of events, which is the most comprehensive approach to measuring the impact of greenhouse gas emissions." These are the words of Marisol Casado president of the World Triathlon Organization.

What will the future of events be?
The international organization is evaluating a system to evaluate the sustainability of the various events around the globe.
Within this recognized three-tier evaluation system, there are "mandatory", "recommended" and "to-do" actions that local committees will have to carry out. A three-person commission, determined by the World Triathlon Sustainability Executive Council, will evaluate the dossiers submitted by the locations and award gold, silver or bronze certification based on the parameters set out in the guidelines.

With these guidelines, the World Triathlon wants to make events sustainable in the simplest way possible, so that all interested parties can work together from the beginning for the same goal: the conservation of the ecosystem. By doing so, awareness will be greater, the effect stronger and potentially reduced costs for both organizations and athletes.

How to choose equipment for open water swimming

When you start out in the world of open water swimming, it is completely normal to face doubts and questions, such as: What equipment should I have? What kind of wetsuit should I wear? How many millimeters thick should it be? Do I need accessories?

Obviously there is no answer to all these questions, since every athlete is different and will have different needs depending on their experience and future goals for open water swimming.

An experienced swimmer who has trained in the ocean for years and knows the area won't need the same equipment as someone just starting out in the discipline. There will also be differences depending on whether you swim in winter or summer, if you are considering competing in any event or triathlon, or if your goal is to simply swim for the fun of it (our favorite).


THE IMPORTANCE OF THE LEVEL OF EXPERIENCE IN OPEN WATER IN THE CHOICE OF EQUIPMENT


Aside from the essential swimming cap and goggles (best mirrored to avoid sun discomfort) that everyone should wear, if you have little or no experience in the ocean, you should first worry about safety and comfort. As a novice swimmer, you will want to be comfortable and calm. You want to dive into the water with the confidence that you can take your first strokes in the ocean without worrying about the cold or the new equipment you are using that affects your swimming. A wetsuit that has high flexibility, neutral buoyancy and provides the right amount of thermal insulation will be ideal for starting this new adventure in open water swimming.

And of course, when it comes to safety, visibility must also be mentioned. It is important, especially if you have limited skills in open water swimming or if you are unfamiliar with the area you will be swimming in, to be clearly visible to others while in the ocean. Wear items such as a high visibility cap (neoprene or silicone depending on the water temperature), a buoy or a

wetsuit with orange sleeves will provide more safety in training sessions and avoid unnecessary fright with other swimmers, surfers or boats. The buoy, in addition to providing high visibility, is an essential element for any open water swimmer and should always be present. Not only is it a basic safety accessory, but it gives you greater buoyancy should you stop for a rest. It also allows you to transport your personal items in a safe, practical and watertight way.


DIFFERENT EQUIPMENT FOR DIFFERENT PURPOSES


Regardless of your level of open water swimming experience, the equipment and accessories you need will also vary based on your goals.

For example, if your idea is to start swimming in cold water, you will definitely need to consider a suit with superior thermal insulation that prevents as much cold water as possible from entering the suit while swimming. In this case, you should also consider neoprene accessories such as a cap or hood, booties or gloves that will help you retain as much body heat as possible to withstand longer workouts in cold temperatures.


On the other hand, if your goal is to swim in warmer waters while always maintaining buoyancy and a high level of freedom of movement, you should look for a sleeveless wetsuit or you may like the option of a two-piece that you can alternate depending on. the situation.

If you want to compete, you won't have the same needs if your goal is a triathlon as if you were preparing for a long-distance race. For a triathlon, for example, you will not only focus on flexibility and buoyancy (depending on your level) but you will also look for a suit that is particularly easy to put on and take off, which allows you to make the transitions as quickly as possible. If, on the other hand, you are preparing for an event that will take you many hours in the water, you should again look for good thermal insulation so that the cold does not move you.


There are certainly many variables to consider and many options available to you, but only you know what the best solution is when choosing open water swimming equipment. To summarize what we just discussed, you should consider your experience and goals. From there, you can make the selection that best suits your needs and how you will use your equipment.

How to clean and store a wetsuit

Taking care of our equipment is an excellent choice to extend the life of our neoprene and enjoy it as we did on the first day.

1. CLEANING THE SUIT

By cleaning our wetsuit after each use we will be able to keep all the properties of its materials in perfect condition.

This procedure must be done especially after using the neoprene in salt water or in water with chlorine.

Duration: 10 minutes
Materials: Water, neutral pH soap.



1. Clean the suit with fresh water to remove excess salt water or chlorine.

2. Apply a small amount of neutral pH soap to the suit and gently scrub the suit panels.

3. Rinse the neoprene to remove any soap residue.

4. Turn the wetsuit over and hang it from the waist to dry naturally without exposing it to direct sunlight or any heat source.

2. KEEP OUR SUIT


Proper storage of the wetsuit will prevent the appearance of wrinkles in the neoprene and will keep the seams free from tension over time.

The best way to store a wetsuit is to hang it at the waist, to avoid tension in the most sensitive areas (shoulders and arms).



1. In high elasticity suits (eg Orca Alpha, Orca Predator), it is very important not to use a hook to hang the suit from behind.

2. In other models it is possible to use a coat hanger, as long as it is wide and the neoprene is not subjected to tension in the neck and shoulders.

3. To protect the SCS liner on the outside of the suit, it is recommended to add a small layer of talcum powder when storing it for long periods of time to better preserve the liner.
