  • Triathletes in Chicagoland: Tati is starting a triathlon team. Learn all about it at the info meeting this Tuesday.
  • And yet another ergonomic design for saddles, by Selle Royal (via Bike Rumor). (Read this New York Times article about the dangers for those who use inadequate bicycle seats, that is, the dangers for all of us.)
  • "We are the cyclists: the intermediate stage between humans and pure energy."
  • iPhoners out there: Mapmyride.com has launched an application that allows you to map your ride with your phone and sync it with your mapmyride account.
    The App is as simple as can be, though it does require the newer 3G iPhone with GPS. It records total time, distance, current speed, average speed and you can view your maps directly from the phone after the ride. One of the features they’re working on for a very, very near future update is to allow you to upload maps from your account directly to your phone.

  • You'll get this only if you have played Guitar Hero (from cyclelicious):
