rainy afternoon

Now thinking maybe the Springfield race might not have been a bad idea. I needed the racing intensity, but instead I worked on work stuff sitting on my butt, shopped and now making some Potato salad to take over to the Farm for supper.

Try as I might I can't seem to make it out of the grocery store under $100. But then that's food for 4 people for a week, so in reality that's not too bad i guess, esp considering how well everyone eats.

Carbon bike crisis averted. Just have to source a 130mm 17 degree stem (Hello Thompson), decide on a new handlebar and order a set of BB30 compatible 180mm cranks (SRAM Apex are in the lead now), and figure out where the drive train and shifters are coming from. Wheels? Meh - will figure it out, maybe something cool will come through.


awesome idea - except maybe for the fall - i'm done with the heat and humidity - gimme the cool/cold weather.

If SRAM does an Apex BB30 crank, get it. But I think you have to step up to Force to get BB30.

I have the Cannondale aluminum BB30 crank on my road bike, and I like it a lot. The removable spider makes it very versatile.

Just remember that FSA is a four-letter word...
