One of your long term goals was to improve bike performance and it becomes a short and accomplished goal.
Congratulations!

Bambino,

I wondered where you were.  We haven't seen you post anything in a while.

Great race but you have some tough competition in Portugal.  Your time would put you up near the near the front in the US.

Stay in touch.
