Friends,

Just so you all know Fstrthnu is out and Flux is in. Flux is the same Pro Cyclist who enjoys riding, racing on and reviewing (and selling) top-notch cycling equipment. Flux also enjoys giving friendly advice to those who ask and will candidly give the odd race report when he is not too tired.

So Justin ( ;) ) case you cared or were confused. I am me.

People asked me if I were you in recent days. . . I'm afraid I may have disparaged your reputation prior to setting the record straight. Fstrthnu, I'm not.

flux was afraid to come on the 1/1 ride,
fstrnu would have made it.

Flux was up at 7am so he could get 4 hours in before the blizzard hit.

That's soft. If I'm riding in the morning, It's a 5am wake up call for me and I know of earlier, but I'm not that nuts. It's dark and cold enough as it is at that hour.

Word. The sun doesn't rise here in NH until 10, and it sets at 2. The only thing Roman was doing at 5-7 AM New Years was coughing up a phlegm ball the size of Spencer.

We will be running the Aeolus 5.5 and 6.5's again but this year we will be on Kenda Tubular's not Michelin Clinchers. This may not be as awful as it sounds as I hear the tires we will be running will be of a very high quality Tubular made at some factory in Italy. I am sure they will be great.

Lemond Bikes. Bontrager wheels and components. Speedplay Pedals (no more Time). SRAM Force. TTX Time Trial Bikes with Hed Tri-Spoke and Disc's. Spiuk Shoes, Helmets Glasses, Clothing by Borah, Defeet.

And a ton of other little knick knacks like Cytomax, That fancy long underwear body suit stuff, Timberland Casual Clothing.... SO MUCH STUFF.

But.

The coolest thing for me:

I get a Lemond "Tete de Course" with SRAM Red and most likely fitted with a pair of XXX Lights. Bajidali, Bowman and Myself get these special rigs for the mountain stages in the important races, i.e. Tour of California, Georgia...

Viper nearly died on Temple. If not for the gel pack gifts of a local, he would have died. It was bad, but good and fun. I never carried gel packs, now I don't leave home without AMEX and gel packs. I repaid the favor to the local, soda at the Peterborough Diner (where I had a photo-op for my future 2020 Presidential run). New Hampshire is cool. You can wait at the top of the mountains and we can race down them (I will break 50mph all day long, without bricks in my saddle bag atmo). :D

At the foot of Temple, there is a coffee joint, next to a Kawasaki dealer and a local bottled water place as well. Meet you at that coffee spot, forget the name though.

Edit: Monadnock water and it's in Wilton atmo?

climb- not to answer for flux, but probably wool socks, plastic bags, shoes, overshoes and another pair of booties.

everyone who uses them raves about the sidi toasters; heated insoles with a wireless little remote..might want to give'em a shot.

Thick wool socks, Neoprene booties. Toe warmers placed between the outside of the shoes toe box and the neoprene bootie. Was never cold.

Justin stocks them. Justin says to go to the Lightweight Obermayer listing under the "Road" section on the www.sveltecycles.com website. Justin says to click "add to cart". Justin says to then submit all required info on "Checkout" and click "Submit Order". Justin says he will put a doll in the box for you free of charge. Justin is very generous.

Justin is a good guy to deal with.

Quick and reliable service.

I even got e-mails from his PDA when he was training in the jungles of some foreign country confirming my order and the ship date. :D

But that would make me wonder what kind of doll you would get. Would the pins be included?

Will the sidi toasters work/fit inside any typical road shoe, like a shimano r215?
How do they compare to hotronics?
