Happy to see someone who appreciates that. I imagine a lot of people would find it tacky and odd to have that there instead of my name. That statement however, means a lot to me, and it just made sense to put it there.
Yea, I haven't said those words out loud for a few years now...but I always want to remember what they represent. Doesn't matter if it's downrange, or getting some miles on the bike...it's a principle that can apply to everything in life.

Yea, Ultegra Di2, with the 8070 hydraulic disc setup.

Not just in comfort, but whereas I had sort of plateau'd according to Strava (rarely setting PRs or 2nd/3rd medals on segments), the next dozen rides or so suddenly saw the return of those achievements in a significant way!
Thanks! Hoping to get lots of training on her over the next few months, as I have some goals for next year!
