Heya Mia! 🤍, 🗓️, 🔜 and 📋

Hiya! Thank you for the ask! 🤗

🤍 Favorite pro cyclist?

I have so many. It boils down to Wout van Aert, who am I kidding, but honourable mention goes to Jacopo Guarnieri. He's a good bean.

🗓️ A race you enjoyed watching in the past?

People have comfort TV shows and films, I have comfort CX races. Val di Sole 2021 (the first one ever), Belgian national championships 2022 and lately the epic battles between Wout and Mathieu this past season (Zolder and Diegem my beloveds).

🔜 Do you try to predict results? Are you good at it?

No, because I'm epically shit at it. I feel like I don't know enough to make an educated guess and I refuse to just blindly guess a name.

Even though I've taken a part in fantasy Vuelta game because my friend has asked me to and my team isn't doing too badly.

📋 You can add, remove or change one rule in the UCI regulations. What do you do?

Okay. Listen. My biggest pet peeve in cycling is changing bikes during time trials. So I propose a time trial has to be done on a time trial special.

(I know some riders do time trials on road bikes for various reasons and that's fine.)

And a second rule, because why not: one way radio during the Olympic race and Worlds. Riders would get the important updates from the race radio about who's in the breakaway and how much time gap there is, etc. This year's Worlds were ridiculous and everyone would benefit from having actual updates. And UCI would offer the devices for the less wealthy teams.

Meet Bikeflights Ambassador Sydney Wenger

Working a full-time career and racing mountain bikes at an elite level can be two conflicting endeavors, but Bikeflights Ambassador Sydney Wenger has found a way to make them complementary.

Sydney is a fifth grade teacher in the Roanoke, Virginia area, and she’s found a unique way to leverage her passion outside the classroom to enhance her effectiveness inside the classroom.

“I feel that being competitive in a sport helps me connect with my students in a way most teachers cannot,” said Sydney. “Many students at this age have high hopes for their futures, and I may be one of the only adults in their life who they know striving to be the best they can be or simply even following their passion.”

Sydney grew up in Ohio in a competitive cycling family, but was focused on swimming for much of her youth. Although she spent a significant amount of time immersed in the mountain bike race scene while both of her parents raced at a high level, it wasn’t until college that Sydney refocused her competitive aspirations on cycling.

“At this point, I had been swimming for 15 years and was burnt out,” she said. “When looking for colleges, I was originally going to be a dual sport athlete with cycling and swimming. Then, the cycling coach saw me ride and convinced me to just join the cycling team.”

Sydney competed in mountain biking for Union College in Kentucky, and later transferred to King University in Tennessee, giving her the opportunity to expand on her cycling disciplines into cyclocross and road racing. She graduated with a degree in Early Childhood education, but not before winning a national championship at USA Cycling Mountain Bike Nationals and earning first in her age group at the Leadville Trail 100 MTB.

In 2022, Sydney got the opportunity to race in the UCI World Cup at Snowshoe, West Virginia, competing in both the Olympic cross country and short track cross country, inspiring her to commit to UCI races across the US in 2023. Her plans to compete in five states made her a great fit for Bikeflights Ambassador program as she looked for ways to simply her travel logistics.

While she earned some prideworthy results in 2023, Sydney finds the most exciting thing about her cycling career is the opportunity to find new challenges and the opportunity to share those challenges with her students.

“After every race weekend, good or bad, I love going back on Monday and talking about how it went. They are always so happy and excited with what I have done, no matter how I placed.”

One such new challenge that was sure to be a great story for her students was the Garage Racing National Championships back in April, a unique race taking place in an underground parking garage in Arlington, Virginia.

“It was so much fun! Who can say they have ever been to a Garage Racing National Championships? I would say that considering I never race my road bike, I was pretty unprepared, but I did have a blast. I would love to go back next year!”

Despite having ridden her road bike exclusively on a stationary trainer during the previous two years, Sydney rolled through in fourth place.

But specific results are not the lesson Sydney brings back to her students with the stories of her race weekends.

“Even if I'm not winning races, I am still putting myself out there and showing them that you can do anything with hard work.”

7 Tips To Excel In UCI Time Trials

Cycling is great sport that is inexpensive and is the best aerobics exercise for many. Well, many people are unaware of UCI time trials that are going to be organized in 2022. Let’s have a look at the main points which can help you better understand this topic.

1. Stay calm at the start and don’t push your body too hard:

Pushing your body too hard in the start is the most common mistake that beginners make. It is very easy to become over enthusiastic at the start of a race. The main reason behind the fact that you must start slowly is that if you sprint from the start you will build up lactic acid in your legs. This initial boost in the speed will slow you down for the rest of the race.

2. Maintain Calm Mental Attitude:

Don’t think of any thing and stay away from the negative thoughts take hold when racing. In short you must “remove your mind while racing” this will help you concentrate more. Keep pushing yourself and stay focused on your victory.

3. Constant Pace:

Make a constant effort at constant speed in the start and then increase the speed slowly w.r.t time. This constant power output results into quite different speeds, but it becomes the most effective mechanism to get a quicker time. However there are exceptions.

4.Stay Concentrated:

A friend of mine who is a cyclist keeps on telling me that stay focused on the race is the one of the more difficult things. The concentration required involves keeping yourself within a threshold of pain. Compete with yourself and don’t chase or follow the other contestants. Act as your own motivator. Participate in UCI time trials 2022 in Wollongong to participate in this event.

5. Practice Cornering.

Save yourself approximately 1 or 2 seconds by practicing cornering and gradually increasing your capacity and cornering ability. You can save the risk of a broken arm or worse by taking roundabouts quite cautiously.

6. Use a Power Meter:

A power meter is more useful compared to heart rate monitor. A heart rate monitor sometimes fails to provide you exact measures as you heart beat takes time to built up. Power meter is the most reliable option for road racing.

7. Practice, Practice & Practice:

This is the only way to maintain your concentration, speed and pace during the race. It is only through riding time trials that you learn how to keep track on your body movements and remove any flaws that comes in the way.

After five editions in Europe, the 2022 UCI Road World Championships make their way to Wollongong in Australia. This event will be organized by UCI with various events such as 1. Road Racing 2. Team Time Trials 3. Individual Time Trials 4. Cultural Events 5. Participation events are going to take place.
