It is the height of summer, and right now, we are doing some massive rides. We are all here this week\u2014including Lisa Charlebois, Logan Jones-Wilkins, Mike Levy, and myself. This week we talk about how Logan just did a century on a new bike, but before we get to that, it was my turn to discuss a \u201cbig dumb ride.\u201d<\/p>\n(Photo: Josh Ross\/Velo)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Last weekend, I took the Factor One to the beach and back from Portland. It\u2019s a 220-mile ride with 14,000 feet of elevation, and I decided the base build of the One wasn\u2019t extreme enough. To set things right in the aero world, I swapped the wheels for a staggered Zipp 858 NSW \/ 454 NSW setup and paired that with a SRAM 1x XPLR groupset. Then I spent over 13 hours riding. We start by talking about how that went, including the mistakes made that led to violently retching on the side of the road.<\/p>\n
That was just one day, though. Last week, Lisa declared she\u2019d be doing a century a day for seven days. She, of course, crushed it, and she was also diligent enough to record some numbers. She rode for 52 hours, but how many pounds of sugar did she consume during that time? We discussed it, but Levy actually found the number of people she rode with to be the most surprising part of the whole thing. Do you have as many friends as Lisa does?<\/p>\n

Then we bring home the discussion with Logan and the century that was just a small part of the 650 miles he spent on the Trek Domane 5. Trek calls it an endurance bike, but is that what it actually is? It weighs only 14 lbs and will take up to a 40mm tire. Is there a better name for it? Logan walks us through his thoughts on the bike, including, spoiler, why he loves it so much.<\/p>\n(Photo: Logan Jones-Wilkins\/Velo)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
