Rider Diary: Merco Credit Union Classic, Stage 3 Criterium – By Anthony Canevari, SoCalCycling.com Team

What a day! After dinner with my wonderful host family (that they prepared, cooked, and served for me) I contacted my coach Ashley Knights and talked with him about today’s criterium. It was a .9 mile course with a semi technical and somewhat bumpy terrain. I told him how I was feeling and expressed what I thought was best for me for the race. After speaking with him and my  SoCalCycling.com Team Manager Frank Sarate, I knew it was best […]

Rider Diary: Merco Credit Union Classic, Stage 2 Time Trial – By Anthony Canevari, SoCalCycling.com Team

When stage racing, especially in the U.S. , time trialing capabilities are crucial to a GC (general classification) rider/contender. Usually the time trial is where most riders really earn there spot in the GC. I for one, have never been a specialist at the time trial. I definitely could improve on it, but tend to focus on other natural capabilities when training. Time trialing takes a great amount of patience, practice, and tons of experience on how your body works. […]

Rider Diary: Boulevard Road Race – By Anthony Canevari, SoCalCycling.com Team

It’s that time of the year again. For me, the Boulevard Road Race was always the first race of the season. The Boulevard Road Race is never a easy race. It has always had a great turn out of well rounded riders and this year had a really good field of riders. The USA National Team had 10+ riders, CashCall Mortgage had 10 riders and there were some other talents in the field like Optum Pro Cycling p/b KBS teammates […]

Product Review: Continental Grand Prix 4000 S Road Tire

I have tried many different brands and models of tires over the long period of time that I have been riding my bike, and I have come to the conclusion that the Continental Grand Prix 4000 S road tire is the best.  I have ridden on many Continental tires, and came about this model over a year ago, and haven’t used anything else since. What makes this tire so great?  There are several reasons why I will not race on […]

Product Review: TRP 970 EQ Brakes

How do you make one of the best after market brake calipers better than they already are? You add an additional brake release that ratchets, which allows the brakes to be to be more efficient. This is a great feature, if you swap out your wheels often. The brake release also lets riders make a micro adjustments when getting a wheel change during a race, in case you get a rim that is slightly wider than what is normally run. […]
