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

Titan forte wheelset came in last week, and I just picked up some QR skewers for it. Now my frame actually resembles a bike.

Also picked up a new set of PI gloves for myself and some shoes for my fiancee. She'll be trying clipless here shortly (and hopefully not falling over too much).

Bikes: One brand-less build-up, and a Connondale Synapse Carbon Ultegra Disc. A nicer bike than I need, but it was a good deal, so... ;-)

that takes microSD cards, right? newegg probably has some sweet deals.

https://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...-462-_-Product $8 + $3 shipping for a 2gig card + a usb adapter to load stuff to it.
or https://tinyurl.com/yjeb3my if that newegg link doesn't work.

Haha, I'm watching it on Bonktown too! Have Bonktown open all the time, they definitely have some interesting stuff. Have gotten close to pulling the trigger and buying some stuff, but am waiting on getting a job before I spend anything hehe

EDIT: Nice mike! What year/model Tarmac? I don't think it has enough Specialized logos on it.
