Did you read on BJ that I upgraded my Mercian to Campy Ergo from bar ends? I know you Riv nuts love your bar cons, but I do not. I'm so thrilled. Whoopeeeeeee!
That was Andrew's last project before he left for Washington yesterday morning. Made him earn his keep.
Told him he could then add experience with Wheels Manufacturing's spacing kit and quality vintage bikes to his resume.

It doesn't matter what we love. It's your bike, you gotta love it!
That's awesome, when are you going to take it out for a ride? I hear there's a pretty hilly century in Marin this weekend...

Now that we've hijacked the thread . . . The gearing is for flatlands. Larger chainrings than the Litespeed and same cassette.
Bill and I decided against the Holstein because we have so much travel right now. We'll be doing a part of the Napa Valley course this weekend. Maybe Saturday to avoid the actual century which is on Sunday, I think.

I was actually talking about the Marin Century/Mt Tam Double this weekend.
TT... probably never. I'm too chicken.

I know you were talking about Mt Tam. I just wasn't clear. You are supposed to follow my ping-pong mind.
The TT -- It's not about winning. It's about your own goals . . . and getting faster. It's helped my speed.

Towing a trailer has done great things for my speed.
Seriously all you folks who want to go faster... get a BOB trailer, load it up with 60 pounds worth of gear and haul it around for three weeks, doing 20 - 80 miles a day.
You will get stronger.
