In The News – Bicycling.com’s Fueling Secrets of the Pros

January 28, 2015 by Scott Kingsley in Cycling, Road

I recently had the pleasure of attending the Colavita-Bianchi Pro Women’s Cycling Team’s training camp in sunny Clermont, Florida. It was an incredible experience that I plan on sharing more about in the near future. For now though, check out Bicycling.com’s Selene Yeager’s column on “Fueling Secrets of the Pros.” The “Fit Chick” was attending as a guest, and reached out to me again for some pics to use in an article. Previously, I helped Selene out with some pics from Nittany Lion Cross earlier this year for another article on Bicycling.com. It was great getting to spend some time getting to know Selene and capturing some images of her during the training rides with the team.

Oh, and yeah, there is already a spiralizer on it’s way to our office. Selene linked the 3 blade in the article, but we decided to go all in for the 4 blade right away!

In The News – CXMagazine.com’s Coverage of Bilenky Junkyard Cross

January 28, 2015 by Scott Kingsley in Cycling, Cyclocross

It’s not the first time I’ve provided pictures for Cyclocross Magazine‘s online coverage of an event, and I don’t think it will be the last. These guys do a great job covering everything in cyclocross and do it in a way that just seems right for the sport. Cycling caps (caps not hats) off to them, and continue to do the great work.

It was a blast covering Bilenky Junkyard Cross, and something I’m looking forward to in the future. Who knows, maybe next year I might actually race it too. We’ll see.

Schwinn Training at the Newtown Athletic Club

January 10, 2015 by Scott Kingsley in Cycling

If you live in Bucks County, PA, you know that the Newtown Athletic Club, or the NAC, is one of the premier fitness centers in the area, if not the nation. Just about any amenity you could imagine is available, and there are plenty of classes from therapeutic yoga and pilates to high intensity INSANITY and XTrain.

Recently, the NAC upgraded their spin bikes, and Schwinn master trainer Gregg Cook was on hand to teach spin instructors from the Philadelphia area how to use their new Schwinn AC Performance Plus spin bikes. Over 25 instructors were in attendance, and they were treated to a tough class as part of the demonstration.

Bilenky Junkyard Cross, in Black and White

Back in December, a bunch of crazy kids came together to put on the Bilenky Junkyard Cross in Philadelphia. This isn’t your normal cross race though. Instead of racing around a sports complex, or through the woods, riders were challenged with navigating a course filled with junked autos and spare parts. There was a Dodge Neon flyover, a double car barrier, a tire bridge, and a teeter totter over some agriculture tires. Riders of all kind came out, and the bikes were just as diverse. Mountain bikes, cross bikes, single speeds, fixed gears, a BMX with a side car, a tall bike, and even a bike made out of a car door. Since it was not a normal race, I decided to go black and white. Don’t fret, all the color shots are in the gallery as well.

The course was just behind Bilenky Cycle Works, and Stephen Bilenky was nice enough to let me poke around and get some shots inside the shop.

Enjoy the pictures below, and check out the gallery for everything from the day.
