One of my friends has a dad in the hospital for a month and now his cousin just died in her apartment for no reason that’s apparent yet. I can’t even imagine. And he normally has the biggest smile of anyone I know.

WhyFi I just tried to order 6 Schwalbe p1 addix from Merlin Cycles, but they won't allow more than 4 per order.:notamused: When did this start?
Have you had a chance to ride them yet? I've got close to 1k on mine, now, and I'm really liking them. Unless they start taking cuts like mad, I'll probably stick with them for a bit. |

I have not directly said anything to him other than "doesn't that thing get hot during a long ride?" Should I continue to bite my tongue? Or tell him he cannot be a serious road cyclist until he switches to bidons? Better yet, maybe I should post my question in the 41 with a poll?? |

Heard from one of my very best friends and boat racing buddies this a.m.: Yesterday, he found out his sarcoma has recurred, four years after chemo, radiation, heroic surgery, much medical drama, and a miraculous recovery. Very tough news. |

Dunno. That blows, though.

Yeah. I’ve used them for a few weeks, and I’m very impressed. Definitely my new tire of choice.

Cook the contamination off your pads in a gas flame for 20-30 seconds. Has never failed for me...until I sweat on them or ride through an oily puddle again.
(I do have a spare set if I just ruined these) |

40k tt this Saturday. It'll be 97, no shade, and that'll be a long 55-60 minutes without water. I am trying 5000's with latex, and I hope they work.
