Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

Interesting fact: the psi that I can run on these tires (and not pinch flat) doesn't even register on my pump's gauge!  Mucho crazy traction means it climbs over anything I point it at. Just don't expect to go fast in a sprint! |

Took the Seven out for a 20ish mile road ride yesterday after work. Good reminder that road riding isn't as much fun as mtn riding.
There is nothing like flying down a twisty single track and climbing back up to do it again or just tearing through the woods on a nice double track to get the blood flowing. BUT The exhilaration and sense of speed that I experience from flying along down a back country road knowing the incredible distances that I can travel on my road bike also stir the juices. Either way biking is like sex, it's better with another person. |

Absolutely. And the exhilaration of riding in a peloton of 30+ riders going 30+ mph is like a, well... |

Just don't expect to go fast in a sprint! I demo'd one of them that they had at Bike Lane. Thing had ten psi in the tires when I took it out. Definitely a different feel!  |

New bike!  Wilier Cento Uno with Campy wheels and 10spd groupset. She's almost done. Just need to trim the steerer tube and replace the seat mast cappy. Oh, and bottle cages. Quick shakedown ride tells me this one's a keeper. |
