UniCycle SoftWare

After reading all this Uni speed stuff, I decided to write a program to
calculate it. I'm taking feedback for mods and reporting errors, etc.
The code was pretty easy, so I'm pretty sure all is well.

I think the user interface is slick and easy to understand, but I would
welcome comments.

Download it free from http://www.ironjungle.com/

Just click on the "IJ Software" link. The price is right ($0)!

While you are there, check out BeerCalc and our other software programs.

Thanks for taking a look. It was good fun writing it. Let me know if
you have a suggestion to improve it.

A foot speed calculation would be interesting. Foot speed is how fast
your feet are moving in a circle. It's calculated based on cadence and
crank length.

Roger does a foot speed calculation in his Excel spreadsheet:

The theory goes that your maximum foot speed is going to be fairly
constant for different wheels and crank sizes.

When I try to run it, it asked what I wanted to use to run the program.
Any hints?

It may be asking you what you want to use to unzip the file. The
download is a ZIP file. It's a compressed container file. You need to
uncompress the ZIP file to get at the contents.

If you don't have a zip utility to uncompress the file then try
'FreeZip' (http://tinyurl.com/anv7).

Thanks for the suggestion. Since I barely know anything about unis,
this is the type of comment I was looking for.

I'll rev the software and post here when the changes are up at
http://www.ironjungle.com
