don't miss the Annual “Connection of Excellence” Awards presented by BikeFit.

The Annual “Connection of Excellence” Awards presented by BikeFit Thursdayat 5pm in booth # 406 See the display tomorrow for who will win one of these coveted awards!

Good day at Interbike 2010 – Seems like just a few less attendees verses last year but no official word on that. Showed the SwithIT to a lot of people. Specialized provided us with plenty of demo saddles – big thanks to Specialized for that.

Pedros hooked us up with some cool tools. The EXiT bike was a draw.

The most questions today came from Rolf Dietrich of Rolf wheels. He hung out during one of our foot/pedal interface demos. Biggest surprise was Jan Bouland coming to our booth the pick up some cleat wedges she claimed were for a presentation she was doing in the Specialized booth…not sure what to think of that one.

Also at booth # 406 - see the latest EXiT fit bike

Imagine using this bike and switching the saddle in 2 to 3 seconds -using NO TOOLS!

Of course tilt is also adjusted without TOOLS in about 2 more seconds.

It will soon be an option and you will imagine no more.  

Only one more spot available for foot/pedal interface demos at our booth - e-mail Brian@bikefit.com

F. I. S. T. - a Rare View

Earlier this month I had the privilege of teaching again in Valeyermo, CA at the FIST Certification course. If you do not know where this is do not feel like the Lone Ranger. If you ask 20 people in the Los Angeles area ( even cyclists and triathletes) where it is, at best one might have an idea. NO ONE knows where this place is. However once you get there it is a getaway worth the visit.

Dan Empfield has invited me to teach foot/pedal interface several times at his F.I.S.T. Bike Fitting classes. Interesting that the most important part of the education he leaves for the last day ... . Dan Empfield was the founder of Quintana Roo bicycles, the first triathlon specific bicycle on the market! He knows a thing or 2 about bicycle design and fitting, so being able to teach part of his TT/bikefit curriculum focusing on foot/pedal interface is an indication of the importance that Dan "Slowman" Empfield bestows upon his fitters.

Here is a rare glimpse at where the teaching is done at the compound. Check out the gang all looking at the front view; a laser resting on a Speedplay case ... need I say more?
