I recently attended a team building program in Chicago. 130 participants from a major financial lending institution came together to take part in a team building activity to help build teamwork, relieve stress, and give back to the community. I was overwhelmed by the amount of energy and excitement that took over the room when they learned that the bikes they were about to build were going to be donated to underprivileged kids from the local chapter of Big Brothers Big Sisters.

On the list of the most high-profile sports in the world, cycling does not necessarily fall within the top ten. In fact, most of us know very little about the sport in general. Though bicycles are among the most familiar objects known to man, we are much more likely to associate them with training wheels and leisurely bike rides, not competitive, heart-pumping athletic activity.

Cycling in France is a way of life. It is not for nothing that the world's greatest cycling event takes place in France. French people love cycling and not just as a sport, but as the leisure activity par excellence.

Erectile dysfunction. It's not a particularly sexy topic, nor is it something that any of us really wants to think about it. And yet it's an issue that all male cyclists should be aware of, if not actively concerned about.

Kona focuses on the freedom and empowerment of the bicycle. In business since 1988, they still have the same founding owners and have a staff of keen, active, impassioned cyclists.

A new addition to the SHIMANO XTR Dyna-Sys drive train is the RD-M985 SHADOW PLUS rear derailleur. It features a switch at the pulley cage to enforce a heavierspring tension and activate a friction stabilizer to counteract the forces of up and down chain momentum in rough terrain. Chain bouncing can often cause noise as the chain slaps the top and bottom of the chain stay, or even derail from the front chain ring in extreme circumstances. The switch when selected to the "ON" position dampens the cage and consequent chain movement for a nearly silent and stable riding experience. In the "OFF" position it eases the installation and removal of the rear wheel by relaxing the spring tension of the cage.
