- Transform Yourself From Scrawny Cyclist Into Ripped Stud: Here’s How
The time has finally arrived… after some careful preparation I’m starting my workout experiment to gain 34 lb of muscle in 4 weeks! (Check that post for all the background info…) All these weight lifting guides are “experiments” so I’m calling this The Susquehanna Experiment. The experiment is to take a skinny cyclist with [...]

As far as I knew, Del Monte just did canned fruits and fruit juice. But last year they made the jump into the energy drink market with Bloom Energy. I found it by accident one day when I was buying an Ito En Sencha Shot and browsing all the super-unhealthy energy drinks - and then [...]
Thu, 06 Mar 2008 12:33:16 +0000 - While We’re Talking About Powerbars and Carbs…
Last week when I was thinking about how various energy bars stack up against the Cheetah Bar, I decided it could be a potential Powerbar replacement.

Climbing is the most prestigious part of cycling, and for good reason - it’s freaking hard! Climbing to the top of an Alp (or two,) or just staying with the pack to the top of the “local monster” is a challenge. So I thought you might interested in some tips I picked up from Graeme [...]
Sun, 02 Mar 2008 17:21:25 +0000 - Tested: Nutra-Fig Cheetah Bar Energy Bar
Lately I have been realizing that there is a world outside the Powerbar, and my latest find is the Cheetah Bar. While “Power” is good, I’d sure like to be as fast as a “Cheetah,” an animal which isn’t exactly lacking in power. This Cheetah Bar is an organic energy bar retailing at just 75 cents! [...]

That’s me sporting my new wool cycling cap. The best part? I made it myself! (OK, so my mom made it. But why would I learn to sew when my mom and grandma already do?) Anyway it’s pretty sweet and not that hard to make. Thanks go out to BikeHacks.com and [...]

This will be fun! I’m going to sign the Google guest book by joining in this “SignTheGoogleGuestBook” blog meme madness. What is this SignTheGoogleGuestBook hoopla? It’s a bunch of bloggers writing a post about “SignTheGoogleGuestBook” and having them all appear on the Google search results, here.

Mon, 25 Feb 2008 23:48:41 +0000 - FREE Baked Veggie Crisps from Flat Earth
Want some FREE stuff? Then you might want to check out these new “veggie crisps” from Flat Earth. They are basically potato chips but made from vegetables. This isn’t a new concept, because I’ve seen plenty of smaller companies come out with healthy veggie chips like this. However, Flat Earth is a division of Frito [...]
Sat, 23 Feb 2008 13:36:36 +0000 - Tested: Dancing Star Chunks of Energy
Despite living in Massachusetts for four years, the Dancing Star food company (based in Buckland) and their “Chunks of Energy” managed to elude me. But I’m making up for it now with this taste test of their stuff. The product is called “Chunks of Energy” and they are organic, unbaked “chunks” of energy food (not [...]
