Indoor bike trainers keep cyclists fit when cold winter months keep them from bike riding outdoors. Make indoor training more productive with speed drills and several variations in your workouts.
High cadence spin-ups spin a small gear at a fast cadence. You can amp up your speed to between 110 to 115 for 30 seconds and reduce it to 90 RPM for one minute. Repeat this fast-slow cycle, adding 30 seconds to each fast interval until you reach three minutes. This exercise can give you the strength to increase your speed on your bike when the weather allows you to cycle outdoors again. But, be sure to recover at least one minute during the slower interval.
Try out single-leg pedaling by resting one foot on a chair next to your trainer and pedaling with the other. Strive to pedal at 90 RPM for 30 seconds to create a smooth pedal stroke. Switch legs, and increase your pedaling time up to four minutes. This exercise trains your neuromuscular system to get rid of dead spots in your pedal stroke, thus making a faster, smoother ride with less effort.
Lastly, you can spin at an easy to moderate pace for one to two hours to build your aerobic engine. Perform this exercise on days when you're not doing intervals and increase your stamina.
While you're cycling indoors, pop your favorite upbeat tune into your stereo or MP3 player to keep your ride fun and fresh. Invite a couple friends over to your home with their stationary bike trainers, and go on a group ride if you have the space. If you're limited on space, don't forget your garage. It might just be warm and spacious enough to accommodate your gathering of cyclists.
Your indoor bike trainer doesn't just have to be an unmatched replacement to outdoor cycling. It can be another enjoyable element to your cycling experience that keeps you in shape.

A Newbies Guide To Bmx Racing
BMX bike racing is a type of off-road bike racing. BMX bike races are short races on purpose built off-road single lap racetracks. The track commonly includes a starting gate for as many as 8 racers, a groomed serpentine soil racecourse made up of various jumps, banked and flat corners, and a finish line.
The organisation of BMX racing is facilitated by a number of regional and international sanctioning bodies. These sanctioning bodies provide a set of rules governing the conduct of the races, stipulate age-group and skill level classifications among the many racers, and maintain some sort of points accumulation system over a racing season. The sport is largely participant-driven with the typical racer age of approximately 13 years. Professional ranks can be found for both women and men, where the average age is higher.
A BMX bike is a strong, relatively quick-handling, lightweight deriviative of the standard twenty"-wheel single-speed youngsters bicycle. Variations include larger twenty-four" wheel BMX bikes and infrequent multi-speed bikes.
While BMX racing is an individual sport, racing teams will often be formed from racers in various classifications for camaraderie and often for business exposure of a sponsoring organisation or business. BMX racing rewards strength, quickness, and bike handling skills. Many successful BMX racers have gone on to leverage their skills in other forms of bike and motorcycle competitions, especially track cycling in the more explosive sprint events.
BMX Racing became a medal sport at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing and after a successful debut will continue to be a medal sport in London 2012.

How do I shorten up my 8 spd chain so it'll become a single speed chain?
I'm not going to get a new bmx chain ring right now and i will change to a ss hub soon, but currently im going to use the crank i have, which is 3 speed and i will take off the third ring and replace it with a e13 or blackspire bashguard. Now my question is to tighten up the chain because I'm taking off my derailleurs as well.
You need a chain tool in order to shorten the chain.
A chain tool pushes a rivet out so that links can be removed, and it also pushes the rivet back in. The trick is to push the rivet out just far enough so that it is still in one of the outer plates of the link. This will make sense once you do it. The reason is because it makes pushing the rivet back in much easier. If you push it out all the way, it is really hard to reinstall it. The rivet is a press fit in the outer plates of the chain's link ~ meaning that it is slightly larger than the holes in the plate.
Once you press the chain back together make sure the chain pivots easily on the rivet. You don't want any tight spots. If it is tight, simply turn the chain around in the tool and slightly press the rivet the other way. That should free things up.
If your bike doesn't have horizontal dropouts, or sliding vertical dropouts, or an eccentric bottom bracket, you aren't going to have any way of taking up the slack in your chain.
The cheap solution to this problem is a chain tensioner. They mount where your derailleur mounted and they have a spring loaded arm with a pulley on it. They work OK but you'll grow tired of it.
Another solution to this problem is to buy an eccentric rear hub. A company called White Industries makes one. They're expensive but they eliminate the need for a chain tensioner ~ but you will need to buy a BMX style freewheel. The axle on the hub is off-center, which allows the wheel to move backwards in your frame, thereby tensioning the chain. This works pretty good but if you have V-brakes on your bike, you will have to adjust them every time you adjust your chain tension. The wheel also has a tendency to move forward when hitting big bumps and when pedaling hard.
This is the exact path I took in my singlespeed journey. Let me share a few more things that I've learned:
8 speed chains break.
Singlespeed chains are much stronger.
Chainline is important.
Singlespeed specific cogs are a must.
So are singlepeed specific chainrings.
I've since bought a new frame with an eccentric bottom bracket, and this is by far way better than the chain tensioner and the eccentric hub.
Go cheap just to see if you like riding a singlespeed, but do it right or your chain will be jumping teeth as you're pedaling, or it could break under the load of hill climbing. Either way you're going to kill yourself.
If you decide that singlespeed riding is for you, then plan to buy a singlspeed bike. The popular thing right now is 29ers, or bikes with 29 inch wheels. A lot of guys I know swear by them, however I still prefer a 26 inch wheeled bike.
