New Wheel
Originally uploaded by KneescarPictured here is my new back wheel. I decided to take the advice of pretty much everybody that I ride with, or works on my bike and get something non-exciting and sturdy. The wheel has 36 spokes (instead of 20) that are not flat "aero" bladed, butted, or in any other way, fancy. This cost me $200 (well I OWE $200 to a very generous sponsor/ friend of mine) I really wasn't wanting to buy new wheels, and Lord knows I couldn't afford it now, but I really did NEED this one.
In the interest of Updates, I'm doing ok. I'm surprised about how well I'm fitting in with this new group of friends in the cycling world; it must be that we have a common interest (or passion) and even though it's only 7 months that I've known most of them, we have depth of shared experiences and suffering together that makes us, in some ways, feel like brothers, or old friends. (a lot of them ARE old friends)
I'm feeling chatty, so maybe I'll get in a few more updates.
