You have the oddest winter cycling clothing I have ever seen.

How are you liking it? (And I agree, my first thought was "how is he riding with that weird beaver suit on?")

Looks like a nice light build! I’ll bet it feels like flying. I had a way too small Grand Record from this era pass through my hands and I could tell just by holding it, it was a nice rider. Wish it were bigger so I could’ve kept it. I ended up parting it out. I love the Dura Ace stuff you have.
