Hit a car today - not bad

[Mr. Bloom]

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!

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

Glad to hear that you are back on the road. Give that ankle some TLC. Maybe some acupuncture?

I was wrong on the cassette...The P2 is coming with a 12-25. I am really thinking that I'd like an 11. I ordered Ultegra SL. The only things that are additional DuraAce on the "DuraAce" are the derailliers. Trying to save $$ here. My Madone is ultegra. the Wheels are Shimano R-500 Aero. I haven't really researched them, to see weight and rim height. The P2 comes with a tri saddle, I'll try it out first....but changing saddles...you know how hard that is to do.
