Tim, I have to work this weekend. I would love to join your group and ride with you, but if you're training to race, I may not be able to keep up. (Don't get...
Allen, glad you found us. We are riding tomorrow starting at Pacific/Algona on the interurban trail. We'll probably ride about 20 miles. Just so you know, we...
Tim posted this the other day... ... I dream of being able to average 15-16mph! I have done it on a tarmac racing circuit (level and little wind), but on my...
Hi , if anyone owns or has owned a Varna I Handcycle , I need some tips on how to reduce the turning radius without busting my knees ! Thanks Have a great day...
Attention all Handcyclists! The 2002 USHF Calendar & Rankings System has [finally] been completed. We apologize for the lateness of the calendar this year....
I have ridden one and for any one except an amputee above both knees it is very hard to turn it very tightly. My knees and legs were in the way all the time....

Mike, I too average just about 12 mph. I'm an amputee using one hand to crank a Top End XLT with a 7 speed internal and Mountain Drive. This year, I'm...

To be honest, you will never really be able to make the varna 1 make a tight turn. Unless you decide to cut your legs off. The bike was bascially designed...
I am striving for better fitness, speed and stamina. I am doing the miles and want to improve even more. Is there anyone using a heartrate monitor while...
Of course we all want to be faster...There are several factors that I have seen over the years that effect my average speed. It seems like for teh most part,...
I'm a quad/ high para c-7 with good hands and I never have been able to up my average beyond 15 or so with a more realistic 12 mph. I don't have a heart rate...

Yes! that will be interesting to see. Where can I find an up to date web page or other resource for race scheduling in the USA? The USHF page is not working. ...

Wrong Ken. But I can tell you my experiences with the NYC marathon. Wheelers left 1st about 10 minutes ahead of handcranks, 75$ is a typical fee NYC more...
