The Slowman Cometh

We're invading your space. Our first Slowtwitch Road Show takes place just under 4 weeks from today, at Inside Out Sports in Cary, NC.

Roka R1 Goggle

Roka calls its angled lens feature Rapidsight. It is visibility without bulk, and without a raised profile that catches water. Yes the R1 is a goggle, but it's also a technical platform.

Cannondale Slices prices

The entry level price category just got a big boost, when a better than entry-level bike just took a major price haircut. The Slice is a very compelling option.

Felt IA 16

This is the first of our series on sub-$3000 tri bikes we recommend. The IA 16 is another of Felt's shots across the industry bow, alotta bike, nicely-priced.

The Envelope Please

Best in Tri during 2015 were honored at the TBI Conference in Marina del Rey, California. The big winner? Norseman specifically and Scandinavia generally.

iBikeThief

There are two technologies that bring an inexpensive, lightweight, long-battery-life, hideable anti-theft bike device within reach.

Roommates: Ironman and ITU

Ironman just bought important ITU series races, along with the international broadcast rights for the ITU World Triathlon Series. Why? And will this work out?

The Slowtwitch/TBI 50 honors the specialty retailers who distinguished themselves by their service to triathletes in 2015.

How would you like your data?

Grilled or deep fried? Today, your data comes to you via wrist-watch, bicycle head unit, heads-up display, audio and even vibration. Hint: look hard at audio.

The Treadmill Revolution?

Stationary training on Slowtwitch is almost all about the bike, not the run. But 72 percent of you run on treadmills. Why is there no treadmill ecosystem?

The Boundary of Sport

Who are the multisporters today who capture my imagination? Those who know where they want to go, know it is not easy and devise skills, products and methods to get there.

Electronics Ecosystems

Imagine your cardiologist noting, from 3 months of your WKO files, that atrial fibrillation tracks with moments when you're dehydrated or when you're training too hard.
