And this is why I'm not in a rush to replace my KKRM. The notion of having the trainer keep the resistance steady regardless of wheel speed sounds appealing to me on the surface... but that's just not the way it happens, you know - in real life. Sometimes there's gaps in gearing and you don't have the luxury of your self-selected cadence at a given output. I mean, I could see how it would be appealing for the trainer to adjust resistance to simulate terrain during faux riding, but faux riding doesn't have much appeal to me at this point... so what's the point?

You didn't mention that it was part of the bicentennial. It's almost as much a part of American heritage as the Liberty Bell.

If I was still running tubed clinchers, I'd stock up - Competitive has Vittoria Open Corsa EVO CX for $29 in 23mm and 25mm.

Lots of ice, puddles and icy puddles, so I took the Haanjo out today -
MTB shoes/pedals worked just fine, though I did have a couple, "okay, now to stick it in... oh wait - it was already in..." moments.

Are radiologists licensed by each state the way other doctors are?
Yesterday I had an MRI, then went directly to my appointment with the bone doctor. We waited for a few minutes for the radiologist report.
I asked the assistant if there was a radiologist on site (in the building). She said no, "they read from all over."
I assume they're at least in America, right?

What configuration does he have available at $900? I have a corporate account with them and it looks like there's an SRAM 1x hydro for $1200 and then Ultegra hydro @ $1399. I don't see any other drop bar configurations for less.
Anyway, it's a fun bike with gravel tires, but a little jarring with skinnies, but that's what he's got the Synapse for, eh?
What does your Canyon weight in at? I bet that you could drop a couple/few pounds pretty easily and make it a great all-arounder - that's my plan with the Domane.

Not sure what he was looking at, I'd have to ask for an update from 'em.

From what I gather, the best readers are in Breckenridge.

I bet that Watson fella would do a good job, though I'm not sure about his bedside manners.
