Here is the second installment of 2010 CompuTrainer TV live from Kona. Simon asks up and coming GB triathlete Fraser Cartmell about his racing history, riding for the Trek-K-Swiss team and why he chose the CompuTrainer over the many other power ergometer options.
In CTTV segment three we'll visit with Scot Cat Morrison and find out how she is getting on with race preparations on Thursday of race week.
I will again explain the link format in use for this video. YouTube allows a high definition aspect ratio upload of 16:9, the best format for our purposes. That is the good news, however, upon imbedding the video to the RCVman blog site, the template crops almost 25% of the horizontal image (the 16 part of the ratio) to fit in on the page. The way that we are staging the interviews, with Simon addressing the athlete side by side, the crop takes the star almost out of the frame altogether, not a very good way to present them. So we simply add the link back to YouTube so you can watch in high quality and see who Simon is asking to. Sorry for this minor inconvenience.
Lastly, WTC (Ironman) just sent all media reps an e-mail saying that they will be posting video for our use starting later today, so I hope to access that feed and post asap.
It is Thursday of race week, and things are heating up. We have more CompuTrainer user testimony and some entertaining and cogent Age Grouper comments coming up later today, so stay tuned folks as we steam-roll towards Saturday morning at 0630 (yes the Pros get a thirty minute head start this year).
All for now. Aloha & Mahalo.
