The basics of these sprints entails two riders. Not only are you racing each other, but also the clock. Two stationary track bikes will be mounted via a fork stand. The rear wheel will spin freely on the Krietler roller system. The distance that the each rider travels will be accurately measured through our in house designed (more on the technical vervage later), connected via USB port to our computer. This method will much more accurately measure statistics like time, speed, distance and wattage. We might even throw in an actual light bulb to see how much electricity your throwing down. Holla!
