In the days when I was into recording music, I always wanted one of these in my rack...

Also, off topic, but someone, probably a vendor, left us with cookies and cupcakes in the break room, the heartless bastards.

I agree but weird after 5000 miles it shows it’s ugly head.

Ritchey is on it now. Discomfort was present but the pain wasn’t there like on the C2.
I still plan on selling the C2 and getting the Emonda or CAAD13. I want to stick with trek but I don’t like the relaxed geometry the AL5 emonda has.

One last thing.
Im using my new shoes on the madone. When I was in Dallas I brought my spares which are too big on me. Still should not make all that much of a difference. The old shoes were all I had for the last year and again no problems.
Madone is going to the shop on Monday for the new cockpit so I’ll ride the c2 on Tuesday with the new shoes. Maybe all my problems will be solved.

I rode to the office today to see if I've still got it (I do), but now I have to ride home into a headwind, the setting sun, with the 4/5 p.m. maniac traffic.
Hoo boy.
