Our company is an authorized dealer for Garmin and Polar and carries all of their GPS watches and cycling computers at the lowest allowable prices, BUT I’M GOING TO DO THAT ONE BETTER exclusively for registered members of the Richmond Tri Club.
For the entire year all club members have to do is go to Heart Rate Watch Company and enter the promotion code – sub10tri. This code will automatically take an additional 10% off all of our Polar and Garmin cycling computers, GPS watches, heart rate monitors and accessories on all orders over $100. We still SHIP FREE and charge NO SALES TAX. If you are purchasing a $300 GPS watch that is an automatic $30 savings, buy a $400 cycling computer and its $40 instant savings, and all because we very much appreciate, support and are part of the triathlon community – in fact we go all the way back to its roots in the early 1980’s.
I wish you all the success in the world in 2010 and may you go sub-2 on the short courses and sub-10 on the long ones. |

Richmond Pro Cycling
www.richmondprocycling.com
|
For the triathlete, the ride is being out there alone against the clock, pumping out the highest sustainable power and hoping to still have something left in the legs for the run. The bike leg constitutes the majority of time spent in one activity and time gains or losses on the bike are disproportionately important. While the race tactics of the triathlete and pure cyclist are very different, the strength and drive needed to succeed are the same. Still, many triathletes hesitate to get involved with road cycling even though the benefits of riding and training with experienced riders are many: you get faster, improve your bke handling skills and just plain have fun. A new professional cycling team is hoping to break down barriers between cyclists and triathletes. Richmond Pro Cycling is the brainchild of Craig Dodson and Sarah Caravella, two seasoned professional cyclists who have settled in Richmond. The team, originally founded three years ago as Nature's Path Pro-Am Cycling, was ranked 2nd nationally for semi-professional cycling teams. RPC's team structure ties top-level professionalism (currently 7 members) with youth development programs and widespread community involvement efforts. Look for RPC's support and participation in clinics and workshops for TMP, RABA and RTC members throughout 2008!
