Is my interval training routine effective for mountain bike training? Yes, as long as, again, you don't mix it in with weight training. The idea is that if you want a session of higher intensity training, such as threshold, intervals, or sprints, to be effective, you should train hard. You should feel like you should be carried off the bike at the end of the session. Then rest at least two days before attempting another hard session. |

What are the advantages and disadvantages of riding a smaller Mountain Bike frame? @Jahaziel The internal forces in the frame will be smaller, but the external forces exerted by the necessarily longer stem and seatpost will more than make up for it, because proportionally more leverage will be added externally than removed internally. |

What kind of bicycles do they ride in the Tour de France? @Robert Korytnik: You're right, I was projecting from maybe 2007, when I remember some sprinters still used alu frames for their better stiffness. Edited. |

How practical is an unicycle on uneven surfaces? How exactly do you propose unicycles can be faster than geared bikes? To hit 25 km/h on a large 28 inch wheel unicycle you'd have to pedal with cadence of about 180. |

iPhone app to follow/navigate an imported .gpx I have, actually. I am aware that there is a plethora of GPS logging apps, and a number of apps can import a track and show it on the map. On the other hand, there are car navigation apps. I'm looking for something that can combine these functionalities. |
