$122 for VoS stage race
I'm also going to purchase a rear carbon clincher and an Evade helmet this month. After this month I have a financial goal of reducing my cycling related expenditures to consumables/repairs only for the next 6 months.

I don't think I've ever spent this much on shoes before, but they're purple, so who cares!

Found a good deal on a practically NOS cyclocross frameset. I probably won't get to do much racing next fall with my kids both playing soccer, but I needed a bike for levees and fire roads.

Shoes are fantastic, especially for the price, although it has only been trainer rides so far. More snug, yet roomier than my old Bontrager RL's, if that makes any sense? And of course the BOA fasteners are a quantum leap forward.

Just tell people you were feeling a bit more tri than bike, so that explains the socks.

I've been on a bit of a buying spree. Latest were these:
I'm doing a dirt drop conversion for my single speed mountain bike. It's going to be both awesome and awful!
I also ordered an Arione saddle to replace my specialized Romin. Other people like the Romin a lot, but the nose of the saddle is just too wide for me.
