7.3 miles in rain yesterday to get groceries. 8.9 miles today for fun, hard enough to feel the burn in my thighs.

Haha, no, but you had me curious so I went back and checked. 43.20 to be exact.

How do you like your 2018 Roubaix Expert Di2? Any trouble with the Future Shock? I test rode a couple of them and was very impressed. Been considering pullin' the trigger on one, but wanting to see what Specialized comes up with for 2019 first.

No trouble so far but I haven't a lot of miles on it - only about 500. Really nice ride so I need to do some long rides on it. Most of my miles are commuting on a Diverge Expert X1.

Cut my commute short to 25 mi due to the heat (heat index of almost 100). Not used to it yet.
