So my new 55mm carbon wheels showed up Tuesday. I installed new Michelin pro 4s on them and put them on Contador. These are tubless ready rims which makes putting tires on them a biatch. Rode it for a lazy 40 miler today. Very nice. Roll well, good brake surface, (rim brake) look killer. Man are they stiff! $269.00 for the wheels. Shipped. They are currently $340. Love me a good sale.
also lost another go pro mount today and once again caught it just at the point of separation from the bike. However I bobbled it and could not complete the catch. The camera is ok and continued to roll while it rolled.
I don't kdon'what kind of cheap ass plastic they make these out of but man what garbage.

Up for an early ride. The plan is to get done before expected t-storms coming around 10-ish.

Our thunderstorm was last night. Also last night I learned, via YouTube, how to repair a washing machine and a microwave oven. But where to get the parts?
