Road Racing is the most famous form of cycle racing. The idea behind a road race is very simple. A bunch of cyclists start at the same place and the first among them to cross a finish lines win. This type of race is called a mass start. There are however a ton of different formats of races that are available that are a lot more complicated then just your basic mass start.

Competitive cycling at the highest level is dominated by European based professional teams, complete with masseurs, coaches, cycling managers, directors, PR officials and of course highly conditioned cyclists who earn their living racing for a team sponsor.

Recently, a patient shared a very private and personal health concern. I believe it's an important issue for many active men. A few weeks ago a young man came into my office and was complaining about getting an erection. I found it extremely odd since he was young and in the best shape of his life. After going over his medical history and lifestyle, I discovered that he spent long hours on a new racing bike every weekend.

If you're trying to improve your cycling performance you've probably tried all sorts of training ideas - perhaps you've read up on the subject in a number of pro cyclist training books and have become an 'expert' in nutrition, ideal training distances and the cycling equipment you should have. However the chances are you're still not as fast as you could be. In fact you might even be seriously hindering your progress by doing the wrong type training at the wrong time.

Are cycling sprinters born or made? Could Mark Cavendish or Sir Chris Hoy have achieved so much renowned world championship success if they were not born with specific physiological benefits? The answer is yes - with specific training programs and focus, sprinters can be made. But no - to get to the levels that Cav and Sir Chris attain, then you do need to be blessed with the physical features that mean you can find that extra sprinting kick, when it really matters.

Ergonomic wheelchair and it's Uses Manual wheelchairs are those that require human power to move them. Many manual wheelchairs can be folded for storage or placement into a vehicle, although modern wheelchairs are just as likely to be rigid framed. Manual or self-propelled wheelchairs are propelled by the occupant, usually by turning the large rear wheels, from 20-24 inches (51-61 cm)in average diameter, and resembling bicycle wheels. The user moves the chair by pushing on the handrims, which are made of circular tubing attached to the outside of the large wheels. The handrims have a diameter that is slightly less than that of the rear wheels. Skilled users can control speed and turning and often learn to balance the chair on its rear wheels - do a wheelie. The wheelie is not just for show - a rider who can control the chair in this manner can climb and descend curbs and move over small obstacles. http://www.wheelchairindia.com http://www.wheelchairindia.com/Wheelchair/1/ERGONOMIC-WHEELCHAIR

Golden Technologies takes all the worry out of purchasing a power wheelchair. Designers blend the most technologically advanced components with superior designs to provide with the almost in quality, comfort and style. Motorized wheelchairs to enter bike lanes if a sidewalk isn't available or passable by wheelchair. Wheelchair users would be required to yield the right-of-way to bikers.

Personally, this bike is pretty cool. It's got a front frame similar to a chopper, with the added comfort of a chair appose to a saddle. A new module is set to transform electric powered wheelchairs into communication hubs. An powerchair is more compact and has a better turning radius than an electric scooter; making it is easier to navigate narrow doorways and tight turns. Another advantage of the powerwheelchair is that its armchair joystick does not require an upright posture like an electric scooter's handlebars. Most power wheelchairs can also be taken apart and stowed, while scooters usually can't. Powerwheelchairs are also usually less expensive than scooters. For many disabled people, the only way to move around is by using a wheelchair. Those who cannot powered wheelchairs propel themselves with their arms, which often leads to fatigue, pain, and even permanent damage to arms and shoulders.

Are you getting the cycling and fitness results you want? It's tough making changes in our lives even when the outcome is something we really want. Sometimes what's needed is a kick up the behind. Other times we need to feel inspired to lift our game, to reach for the stars and follow our dreams.

A Tricycle is a type of human-powered land vehicle powered by the arms rather than the legs, as on a bicycle. Most handcycles are tricycle in form, with two coasting rear wheels and one steerable powered front wheel. Despite usually having three wheels, they are also known as handbikes. Many manufacturers have designed and released hand-powered recumbent trikes, or handcycles. Handcycles are a regular sight at HPV meets and are beginning to be seen on the streets. These usually follow a delta design with front wheels driven by standard derailleur gearing powered by hand cranks. Brake levers are usually mounted on the handholds which are usually mounted in phase, unlike pedal cranks, which are usually 180° out of phase. This allows the rider to more easily use their torso to help propel the cycle. The entire crank assembly and the front wheel turn together, allowing the rider to steer and crank simultaneously. Single-Hand-Drive-Tricycle come in a variety of styles, making them accessible to people with a wide variety of disabilities. There are also hybrids between a handcycle, a recumbent bike and a tricycle. Fork steer handcycles represent the majority of handcycles sold. They work well for both low and high-level spinal injuries, and most have adjustable footrests, seat angle, and come with a variety of gearing, wheel and tire configurations depending on intended use: racing, recreation, or touring. Manufacturers of this type of handcycle include Invacare (Top End), Intrepid Equipment, Varna, Schmicking and Sunrise Medical. Lean steer handcycles are another type of handcycle. In this type of handcycle the rider leans into the turn to steer. There is a longer learning curve with lean steer handcycles, and they are significantly less stable at high speed. The lean steer system feels similar to mono skiing: using your whole body to steer the handcycle. Lean steer handcycles can work well for lower-level injuries; although, some athletes with high-level di

Reclining Wheelchairs are specially designed to allow a person to comfortably recline at incremental angles safely and comfortably. Recliner Wheelchairs work better with Elevating Legrests (ELRs); the user's legs and feet can also be re-positioned for maximum comfort and health benefits. The "ELRs" are optional on some models and standard on others. Be sure to ask about which type of ELR is best suitable for your seating and position needs. On some wheelchairs this is an option so be sure to check the options and accessories when purchasing.

Flexible Back Positioning: The Reclining chairs offer unlimited back re-positioning for more patient comfort, better blood circulation, and to aid in sleeping. Work best with ELRs: Recliner Wheelchairs work better with Elevating Legrest so patients legs and feet can also be re-positioned for maximum comfort.

Ergonomic wheelchairs are those that require human power to move them. Many manual wheelchairs can be folded for storage or placement into a vehicle, although modern wheelchairs are just as likely to be rigid framed. Ergonomic or self-propelled are propelled by the occupant, usually by turning the large rear wheels, from 20-24 inches in average diameter, and resembling bicycle wheels. The user moves the chair by pushing on the handrims, which are made of circular tubing attached to the outside of the large wheels. The handrims have a diameter that is slightly less than that of the rear wheels. Skilled users can control speed and turning and often learn to balance the chair on its rear wheels - do a wheelie. The wheelie is not just for show - a rider who can control the chair in this manner can climb and descend curbs and move over small obstacles. Price starts from 18500 INR,301.330 USD
