Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Early 80's era Campagnolo Nuovo Record brakes, brake levers, and a set of top tube brake cable clips. Finally finishing the fully 'vintage' setup on my 78 Gazelle Champion Mondial A-Frame. It is currently built with Tektro brakes & levers since I was riding it from time to time with the club, but since I have two other steel bikes to ride with the group I'll set this one up as a pure vintage rig.

Haha! Thanks. Actually that's Fizik Microtex white (NOT the soft touch). Wipes clean really easily, probably the easiest to keep clean of all the white bar tapes. Also, in addition to Simple Green, Spray 'n Wash works well too. Really.

I walked into REI knowing I had a dividend and that I needed some bike lubricants.

I walked out 30 minutes later with the lubricants and a Garmin 500 after the cashier asked if I wanted to use my dividend and 20% discount coupon.

Most recent purchase was a pro bike fit which ended up necessitating a new saddle. All I could afford was a Bontrager InForm but it's made a huge difference.

Did the cashier give you 20% off the Garmin? If so, very lucky. I was mislead that the 20% coupon was for GPS also until I got to the checkout
