PRE-RIDE BIKE CHECKS WITH KEN MCLEAN OF LANDRY’S

Ken McLean is the Technical Director for Landry’s Bikes. We had a chance to catch up with him at the 2010 PMC where he was managing the Landry’s bike support staff providing pre-ride checks and maintenance for any rider of the PMC prior to the race. Let me tell you, this set up was pretty awesome…7 stations in all, each one looked like they could build a bike in 14 mins flat and I don’t think I saw one idle for very long that entire day. Guess that’s what happens with 5500 riders. Great interview with Ken and he gives us some quick pointers on the ABC Quick Check, something all riders should do before every ride as well as proper guidelines to follow for bike tire inflation (and no it’s not one pressure fits all). Thanks Ken!
