Ace Girl Races
catching up this morning waiting for coffee to brew - KerryLitka didn't have a new update, Big Drunk Johnny didn't either. Soooo, sitting there on Kerry's page i start down the cycling friends links... and find Rebecca Wellons' blog... and saw a logo dear to my heart (Klein) and reading through the jan 2 post... this scared me: "Full old-school XTR" 'eek' THAT is OLD SCHOOL XTR?
I'm old... that's like the tweenie XTR - not even close to old school - yet nothing like the new stuff... the akward teenage years of shimano... Man my 180 Dura-Ace cranks on the cross machine must be mesozoic or the Mavic road cranks from 1991... imagine the carbon dating on those puppies - i'd still be riding them if they weren't 177.5 (2.5mm too short).
I'm feelin update happy today... watchout - a bit on grades and other stuff later....

Hey! Didn't mean to make ya feel old... "Old school XTR just meant it wasn't that crazy new-fangled integrated brake-lever/shifter stuff. :) I like the rapid-fire style shifters! Anyways, glad the blog caught your eye. Happy riding!
