Ever wonder what the differences between a tubular and clincher bicycle tire was? Ever heard the guys and gals on training rides or at road races, cyclocross events and triathlons talk about the pros and cons? Still confused?

See Ian Murray, host of “Triathlon Training Series” and USAT 2007 Developmental Coach of the Year, as he explains both types of tires, the advantages and disadvantages and makes his recommendations. He also talks about the glue and “sew ups”.

At the end of the day the choice between tubular and clincher is solely up to you. Depending on the types of races you do: mountain bike racing, XTERRA, triathlons, Ironman distance races, etc

‘Tubular vs. Clincher’ is an excerpt from ‘Cycling for Triathletes’, Disc 3 in the “Triathlon Training Series” Volume 1.

One of the biggest challenges for beginner triathletes or people new to swimming is mastering your turns when swimming laps in the pool. Some use “open turns” while others use “flip turns”.

This easy to follow triathlon training tip video segment will help make your swim workouts that much better. Pretty soon you’ll be challenging water polo players at the pool. Don’t forget that it does matter what type of pool you use for training for your triathlons, aquathlons, Ironman races, 70.3 races, etc.
