Been thinking a lot about this. @Delish is pretty much the model husband, when it comes to this. I probably need to be doing a better job of supporting him, frankly. Before baby comes, a few ideas : 1) Check to see if mama's bikes need adjusting. @Delish just raised the stem on my Mr Pink...

The Brand Ambassador model has largely come to be due to Social Media rising to prominence in the last few years. Without Instagram and Twitter and whatever else, #stansnotubes exists in a vacuum and reaches nobody. Most new media marketing types would argue that the "old" model of sponsoring...

I haven't watched the video, but one more piece of advice about getting through lap 1 quicker... During course inspection, anticipate where there will be pile-ups during the first lap. Plan your strategy, anticipate dismounts before they are forced to happen. Esp with a 3rd row callup, this...

Definitively, no. Never once have I self-motivated on the bike by thinking about Childbirth. On the flip side, I do think that maybe racing & being athletic did prepare me well for childbirth. Certain techniques overlap (breathing, other mental tricks). @axcxnj I'd be interested in seeing...

So at Nittany, @seanrunnette made some comment about Childbirth being harder than Cross.... Which got me thinking, IS CHILDBIRTH HARDER THAN CROSS? The Ways Cross and Childbirth are alike 1) Constant influx of meaningless data Cross you have W/Kg and Heart Rate but basically all of it is...

OMG I am so behind on my celebrity news, HOW DID I NOT KNOW THIS?!

One of those things about being pregnant is that your body, your choices, suddenly becomes part of the public domain. This article pretty much exemplifies the experience (even though the author is not actually pregnant). Everyone has opinions on what a pregnant lady should or should not be...

Since you're rocking the skinsuit, warm up in a different outfit. Pin the number on the skinsuit using @Delish's steering wheel method. It bears repeating DO NOT USE THE LITTLE HOLES Then, before your race, change into your nice warm, clean skinsuit. Start out looking and feeling fresh!

I Agree here! Sean Runnette needs to start a blog! Matt, didn't see your race either (sorry, #becausetoddler) but for laps one and two, you seemed to be in fine form... last I saw you were 10 sec or so ahead of Gerald Adasavage which is impressive. As I'm not racing this season, I was mostly...

Hey Kerri! You are totally in the throes of this, amazing that you have been riding so much, especially in the summer heat. Major, MAJOR kudos to you! I'm with you on that! Last year this time I was training 6+ hours a week, so even though I've still been doing something every day (bike...

Folks always ask during your pregnancy "HOW ARE YOU FEELING?!?!?!?!" as if you should generally be expected to feel horrible. Right now at 18 weeks I'm feeling pretty good. Early in pregnancy I had some pretty monumental heartburn but at this point I made some changes (no sugar whatsoever, no...

Hi @mandi! WOW

Hahahaha you're being generous. I think it was more like 3 months!

I am considering taking up a swimming routine, but I've never done swimming for fitness... so as @sarcaro said, and my Doc has said to me I did actually go so far as to buy a swim cap, but then I start looking at maternity swimsuits and get discouraged. Shopping for swimwear is discouraging...

Thanks!

Yes, totally! I've been feeling pretty good recently. First trimester was the usual tiredness, some nausea but nothing really significant.

Guessing it's news to most except for Team MTBNJ but I am officially pregnant, due with our third child sometime in February. This being my third pregnancy, I thought I would start a blog about riding bikes & doing other training WHILE PREGNANT. Not claiming that I'm any sort of superhero...

Even better when you're a girl, on singletrack, on a CX bike :)

Try Pedal Montclair.
