Website Biz: With aeruscomp.com now going live and the updating of my usual sites under control for the moment, it's now time to start on the "BLUE competition cycles" new website, rideblue.com.
Here's some of the current buzz from cyclingnews.com
Tech News – February 25, 2004
The Genesis Scuba women's team has a new bike sponsor for 2004 - and we don't just mean 'new to the team'. Blue Competition Cycles is a whole new company - so new in fact, that their website is still under construction.
Based in Norcross, Georgia, Blue is about to introduce a range of carbon fiber and aluminium frames. Seen here are the RC4 Genesis Scuba team bikes, as ridden to victory in the criterium stage of last weekend's Valley of the Sun stage race by team member Laura Van Gilder.
Available in six sixes from XS to XL, the RC4 features ten-speed Shimano Dura-Ace components, Aerus Composites C4 carbon bars, stems, and seatposts, Velomax Wheel Systems Ascent II wheels with Maxxis Columbiere tyres, and Speedplay pedals. A bike in size M is claimed to weigh 7.0kg with pedals and bottle cages.
If I ever get well enough to resume bicycle riding, let alone racing and winning, I might request a new BLUE bicycle as part of the payment for the website project.
