I think your entry today is podium material, for sure. <br /><br />Now, a wee bit of cycling related happenstance for you to enjoy. I scared the dog laughing my ass off at this find. I searched for the Mavic El Explodo Deluxe wheel you mentioned, via Bing, and went to CompetitiveCyclist. What happened, after clicking the link for Reviews?<br /><br />It's worthy of an RTMS moment.<br /><br /><br />http://www.competitivecyclist.com/road-bikes/review-frame/Which-Cerv%E9lo-is-right-for-you-.RSS_796.html<br /><br />(Please note! The URL shows what happened in Bing- the link is wrong, having nothing to do with Cervelo of course.) I must tip the chapeau to Competitive Cyclist for their wonderful 404 Error page. Did someone have the questionable crabon wheel in the lead? <br /><br />Hey, we're all human, and things do break, sometimes catastrophically, I guess. I like Mavic, just a little less reliance on that crabon at such a critical point.Bobbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05513993084928334264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-30274299308580300182010-10-18T16:18:23.747-04:002010-10-18T16:18:23.747-04:00Um. if he was riding a bike with GEARS he could do...Um. if he was riding a bike with GEARS he could do that same thing without pedaling as fast...
