Vendetta
Of course, the Vendetta is the Cruzbike Vendetta ridden by Maria Parker Monday, 07/19, around the White Oak, North Carolina Loop where she set 3 records riding her “Yellow Bike” a Cruzbike Silvio. She did that 10/10/09.
Today, her performance was impressive! Watch for the resetting of records this fall. I will, and I hope to be there to cover it.

But, this is not about past records or records to come. This is a movie [albeit, rudimentary from a phone (an iPhone 4) no less] about Maria Parker and her ride on John Tolhurst’s newest Cruzbike creation—The Vendetta.

Anyway, here is Maria…

CRW_1539.CRWAfter the ride. Maria plans to ride to break her 100-mile record [100 Mile, 4 hr 47 min 56 sec, 4:47:56, 20.84 mph] this fall.

Today, on the new Cruzbike Vendetta, Maria rode [having only ridden the bike once before] the course in about 51 minutes, with an average speed of 23.2 mph.

I say she will reset her ’09 record. I hope to cover the event. Congratulations Maria!

I’ll have video up later today of the ride.
