Cycling is one of the best forms of exercise and most people like to cycle because of a number of reasons. It helps in building stamina and toning the muscles. Also, cycling is preferred to walking since it can give you the same workout in a shorter amount of time. You can also travel further distances with a bike than you can on foot so it is good for traveling. And all it requires is a bike - could be any kind of bike, the main purpose of riding a bike is to get the exercise your body needs and enjoy better health. Moreover, it is absolutely great to feel the wind on your face and enjoy the cool breeze and silent trees.
The most important part of a bicycle is the wheel. The better the quality of the wheel the easier the ride. These days carbon wheels cycling is becoming extremely popular since carbon wheels are lighter yet stronger and help in reducing wind drag which is very helpful while climbing hills. If you are an ardent biker it may be wise to invest some money into these great wheels. This decision will serve you well in the long run. These days it is very simple to order your wheels to suit your specifications and it may work out pretty economically for you.
Making the decision on which set of carbon wheels to buy requires some research. The quality of the carbon wheels will depend on whether they are tubular or clincher, the depth, build quality etc. Lets take a look at these features. Clinchers are normal tires with inner tubes. Tubular wheels do not have tubes, they are fully encased and get glued on the rims and so they are their own tubes. This results in having lighter wheels which give you a smoother ride. The hard part is that you have to glue them on to the rim which can be tricky. Also in case you get a flat tire when you are riding, you will need to have a spare tire rather than just a tube.This can make it quite inconvenient since you will need to carry a whole tire with you.
The depth of the rim determines how aerodynamic the tires are. But the difficulty is that the deeper the rim, the more the cross winds will push you around. The weight of the person riding the bike is also a key factor in determining the depth of the rim. The higher the weight the lower the measurement of the rim. The overall quality of the tire will also depend on the build quality. The weight of the person riding the bike is also a key factor. Therefore it is very important to and the rim quality. There are many companies online that sell these, but you have to make sure that these companies are going to be around later on to support you. It is important to not get taken in by cheap prices and going for a good brand that will support their product.
Carbon Wheels Cycling are a topic of endless discussion. The concept is so promising; combining the lightness of carbon with the simplicity of clinchers. Consider the possibilities. Let the thought hang in the air. Now take a look at the Easton EC90 SL Carbon Clincher Wheelset.
Solar Energy Farm for Crayola Crayons
On November 19, executives from Binney and Smith, also known as Crayola to millions of youngsters worldwide, broke ground on a 15-acre solar farm in Forks Township, Pennsylvania.
Crayola, known the world around for its multicolored array of wax pencils, known as crayons, was founded in 1885 and now makes 120 different colors to amuse children and adults. The concept is old; the solar farm, which is expected to begin producing electricity early in 2010, is new but reflective of the company’s commitment to environmental stewardship, according to Executive Vice President Peter Ruggiero.
The 15 acres, owned by Crayola, are being leased by Allentown-based PPL Corp., an energy and energy services provider with about 12,000 megawatts of generating capacity and operations worldwide, and Reading-based UGI Energy Services, a natural gas and electric utility subsidiary of UGI Corporation.
The land borders Plainfield Township, and the two energy companies will foot the bill for the solar farm’s design and build-out, as well as the farm’s operation over time. The panels themselves are being installed by Perrysburg, Ohio-based First Solar, a thin-film manufacturing firm with a solid reputation for quality which recently broke the $1-per-watt manufacturing barrier.
When completed, the 26,000-panel farm will deliver 1.9 megawatts of clean, renewable solar energy and will be, according to the Pennsylvania Dept. of Environmental Protection’s John Hanger, one of the largest installations in the state.
The solar farm will provide about 10 percent of the Crayola factory’s annual electricity usage under a power purchase agreement with the utilities, and will prevent about 1,900 tons of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxide and sulfur dioxide per year – all of which are produced by generating electricity with fossil fuels like coal, oil and natural gas. The output, 1.9 megawatts, is enough to power about 1,500 average American homes.
This, according to calculations by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, or EPA, is the same as removing 325 cars from the road, reducing gasoline consumption by 200,000 gallons, or planting 400 acres of pine forest.
Funding for the project, via the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, or ARRA, provided $1.5 million in grant money, with an estimated $10.5 million in matching funds from private sources.
Energy production, usage and other data for the solar farm will be made available through a solar energy display at the Crayola Factory in downtown Easton.
