I thought Prevagen has been debunked by most medical experts and I'm pretty sure that they have to keep changing their ads because of running afoul of whoever regulates advertising. It's also damn expensive.

No pics, but these are LAKE CX238 model in all black so a pic wouldn't be worth much anyway.

I was really close, and the shop offered a discount since the pair in my size was a display set. But, the image of a frying pan hitting me in the head kept surfacing.

At the end of the day, it's probably better that I passed on them since they were white and I'm not that good of a cyclist.

Mine are black. Maybe I should paint them.

Tried on a pair of the S-Works 7s once, and was really tempted to pull the trigger. Just couldn't do it at $400.

Really nice shoe though.

I'm in 8 year old Diadoras. For some unexplainable reason, I can't seem to bring myself to pull the trigger on new shoes and I can't tell you why, these shoes completely suck and have stretched well beyond the point of fitting.

I did just buy some terra speed 35s for a gravel event I'm doing Sunday though, I'll probably bin the GKs, went out to wash the bike and noticed that the "dirt" on the seat tube was a liberal slather of latex/mud mix. I'm over these tires.

Excuse me while I reply to this post from three days ago. Over the years I have observed some people who just simply seem to lack the ability to be alert. When I'm riding I'm more or less constantly on alert for other traffic, road hazards, what my fellow riders are doing etc. I don't know if that just comes naturally to me or if it's a residual effect of my time in the military.

Anecdotal, I know, but I can think of at least three people off the top of my head who have had multiple crashes and when I ride with them it sure seems like they are somewhat blind to obvious dangers. I'm drawing a bit of a fine line here between being reckless and clueless. Anyway, most of those people have quit riding over the years and as much as I hate to say it, that's probably for the best.

I remember one guy in particular -- we were riding side by side in a double paceline and he started drifting over towards me. I didn't say anything because I assumed he would see me before he put me in the ditch but he just kept drifting until I had to yell at him before it was too late. He felt terrible. In hindsight, and putting together some questionable behavior on other rides with this guy in the past, I came to the conclusion that he doesn't have any peripheral vision. It would explain most of his crashes.

More stealthy for you to wear black. If I wore white, I'd probably be labeled as a poser.

It has been debunked and there is no good evidence it helps memory.

However, they seem to somehow get away with continuing to lie to the gullible American public. Sad!

My Specialized shoes are white and I have been ridiculed from time to time. However, the real problem with them is keeping them clean. My model doesn't have a toe cap and they are filthy in front just from hitting the pedals during clipping in.

I always carry a tool for the first 100 miles or so. I got them close as far as centering for the knees but i think they are just a little too far forward, both by looking down and also pressure on the balls of my feet.
