Hit a car today - not bad

[silver]

How did you get home? Sorry must know the irrelevant details.

[Mr. Bloom]

Hmmm...looks like our house with Madone's lined up IN the house....

[Mr. SR500]

Yes, it stays in the house unless we are having company. You should have seen it a few years ago, I had a double stacked rack in the dining room.

Mrs. was out of town, so I called a buddy and he was able to come get me. Nice to have a close cycling community.

What's up with this weather? I want the warm back!

So when does the Cervelo arrive?

You still feeling ok? Which bike will you ride while the Madone is in rehab?

Mr. used to always say I couldn't have another bike because we didn't have space to store it, but he hasn't mentioned that at all this go around. (thank you Mr.Silver) We will have to to do a bit of rearranging.

The cervelo is supposed to be in St. Louis next Monday to Wed. If it is, I'm going to see about taking off early on Friday to go get it. I've got a little Indoor Triathlon on Sat. morning. I'm figuring that there will be about an hour more fitting once I get on it.

I've been sort of reconfiguring in my head.

I want the saddle from the Madone on the Cervelo, and I think that I'll try the saddle from Mr.'s Madone (that he just replaced) on my Madone. I want the American Classics on the Cervelo and I think that I want the Bontrager Race Lite's that came on Mr. Madone (still unused) on my Madone. So the 12-27 climbing cassette will need to be transferred from the American Classics to the Race Lites. I think that Cervelo has an 11-25. Hmmm......FUN!!!

Why do I feel like I'm coming out on the short end of something here??? Next, she'll want the hard top from my Mercedes on her minivan to make it sportier!

This is one of those threads that I think about when I'm out riding! Crash threads always have that impact (no pun intended ). If one good thing comes out of it, it's this--your accident makes me more conscientious.

Hope you're feeling better today!

[Mr. SR500]

I was back on the road today. Did the same route, a bit more cautious, but not afraid. I rode the Bianchi, swapped the power tap, but my conversion cassette is a 11-21 so I wasn't loving that on the hills. (The Bianchi is a 9-sp Campy bike, while my Trek is a 10-sp Shimano with a compact and big cassette)

Not a record pace, but considering the cold (about 20 degrees) it was a very good ride. I'm feeling good, still a little sore, but not bad. Worse part is my ankle, I turned it Sunday night, and then the accident really tweaked it. Unclipping was a bit of a challenge, as I normally unclip left first. I switched pedals not long ago and my feet are still trained on the old pedal, so I'm still getting use to the new pedals, now with my ankle a little weak, it's a pain (literately).

Still waiting to hear from Trek on the fork, I think everything else is ordered, and I might go ahead and order a Chris King headset. Hopefully I'll have it back in a week or two.

Silver, what group did you get on your P2? I think I might try a 11-25 cassette next, so just curious. Also you might like a Tri saddle, I have one on the Bianchi, and it really does help for extended time on the aero bars. What wheels are coming on your Cervelo? Can't wait to see it!

Thanks again

What??
Is there something unusual about that??

[derailed]

I'm relieved you are feeling OK.
