Cold and windy today

Took my gloves off to snap a few shots with the ancient digi cam and my fingers froze. The shots don't capture the intensity of the wind unless you are used to reading wave reactions.

Rode in w/o the marathon plus tires and was tip toeing over the shell strewn areas. I've got maybe too much confidence in the Schwalbe tires but they haven't let me down yet. These other marathons are supposed to be almost as good but since I don't have full coverage fenders I'm wiping the tires after each pass through the bombing fields and sometimes mid-field.

The Q-Pro seemed light and responsive. Didn't need to bail out of the 53 on the way in. Felt good. I felt pretty good too. The bar position is different than the giant, a bit lower on the QP but not that much different. No problems adapting to the position so far.

Oh the fun lunch time reading is this. Cool stuff.

A few shots. I got a few good ones from the friday night commute home too. They might get up later...
