August 17, 2014 August 16, 2014 | August 17, 2014 Professional
cycling is a sport in which there is rarely any mercy: long, torturous
stages are a point of pride for most races, and the athletes themselves
are expected to take a never-say-die attitude. So it was surprising
when the riders called to the pre-race press conference of the 2014 USA
Pro Challenge expressed seemingly unanimous support for the relatively
short, punchy race, where the average stage length with the 16.1km time
trial is only 120km. (cyclingnews.com)

August 17, 2014 Eric Hayes is the
craftsman who polishes our René Herse cranks, locally on the outskirts
of Seattle. These days, most bike parts are black, and few in the bike
industry still have the skills to polish metal without grinding off too
much material, which looks ugly and affects the strength of lightweight
parts. (janheine.wordpress.com)
