But lest it go unsaid, we do appreciate you being here.


And we appreciate you elder statesmen for your knowledge, patience, and enthusiasm for these. It allows us to take that knowledge and enthusiasm well into the future for the next generation. That is, if the ebikes don't mow us all down. As I sit, to my left and leaning against each other, are a '15 Cannondale CAAD10 [hydraulic] Disc with 11-speed, internal routing, and an '81 Trek 710. One has Shimano 600, the other has its multi-generational successor Ultegra. My how things have progressed....

I am enjoying seeing the continuing unofficial roll call of the 40 and under riders.Keep it coming.
