SBR Utopia ---- Permanently OPEN!! (Page 54)

Killin' me!  Nice ride.  

I got 40 in today, but 36 degrees, gusty wind and pouring rain made it hard to enjoy by the last bit (was hoping for more miles, but couldn't feel my fingers or toes by the end and just called it).

I wonder if there's any biotech in HI…

Going to drop it off in the next couple days for TBT to first race of the season, here's 2014 race ready version.   I am tinkering with a longer straw on the A2/Z4 setup with a clip down on the side to hold the straw down outside the wind, but haven't quite figured that out yet.  Flat kit in the Torhans.

Great looking setup Chris!  What do you think of the TriRig brake (is that new?)?

EEEEYAAAAHOOOOO

I think the bolded part, above all, is most awesome.

Thanks.  2013

Mostly back.  Decent hilly 45 miler saturday followed by a :20 run, then 11 mile descending pace run Sunday morning and 3700 in the pool in the afternoon.

Even with the health issues, managed to eke out a 100 mile run month.   First one in a long while

Good weekend for me.  I manged to avoid some ugly weather on Sunday by going out early for my 2 hour run.

Chris - that is a great looking bike and an incredibly tidy setup! Really glad to read that you are able to get back out there! Hopefully the forced R&R actually allows you to come back strip onager than ever in race day.

WoW!  That is amazing you were able to get that in.   

Nice job, Salty! Can't wait to read the particulars of the "good decisions" you made! Back before the race I was just about to post that you should suck it up and just try to learn from your arch nemesis, but then Dale chimed in with all of his so-called "logic" and "reason." (Heh).

Sounds like you were smart and listened to his excellent advice?

rReally nice rides, Jason - I am probably about 4 weeks away from being able to start getting in some epic summertime rides - you have me chomping at the bit to get going!!!

interesting - was interested in that as well. I naught a pair a while back when the white ones went on fire-sale with the intention of rebuilding my P2 from the ground up. Picking up the New Felt changed that plan a bit, and I am now thinking about trying them out on my Cervelo S2. it is obviously important to have some very good stoppers on that bike, so you have me rethinking that just a bit.

Edited to fix broken HTML formatting.

RIght on!!! That is hawt!

Nats are in July and they are here! That's what is so great. 

And here is my RACE REPORT

I'm really excited about my weekend training.  I managed a 10 mile run (at a reasonable pace for me) quite comfortably on Saturday.  On Sunday, I drove 90 minutes north to find some hills....and planned for a ride with as steady power as I could manage at my projected race power.  I did 66 miles and even though my body was ready to be off the bike, it seemed like it wanted to get off so I could run.  I had a great 4 mile run after the ride!  Long run, long ride followed by a short run = starting to feel good about my race.

Nice job!

That's a serious weekend effort - nicely done!

Sounds like you are feeling good about the race for good reason.

Great news Nicole, solid weekend.   Just a heads up....   70.3 worlds slots apparently rolled way (as in waaaaaay) down at Oceanside for most of the men's ags.  Read that that M40-44 slots rolled all the way down to 5:47 finish, just went and checked that's like 140+ AG......  Not sure about the wimminz, but in cae you were interested at all.   Concensus seems to be that there may be a big rolldown at St G as well.
