It hasn't rained in GA in like two months. So today I took the plunge and bought a new Kutoa K-Factor (White!). So, I am getting fitted for the bike and really pumped about taking the it home for a long ride, when what do I hear outside? THUNDER....Are you freaking kidding me. The farmers around here should pay for this damn bike! Its like the new Indian Rain Dance!

So I took it home, and did a two hour training ride while watching golf on tv. BOY IS THIS BIKE SMOOTH. I couldn't feel a single bump or ripple in my hardwood floors. Its got to be the full carbon frame....just has to be.

I will have some pics of "Buddella" up tommorow. I have yet to see a pic of the white K-Factor on the net.

The name "Buddella" is a combination of our two dogs, Buddy and Ella. The guys at all3sports told me I had to name the bike and since Buddy is black and Ella is white, and the bike is as well, I thought it made sense.

I will try and get the dogs in the pic with the bike!

I had to choose between the K-Factor and the Orbea Ora. I chose the Ora, but I rode the K-Factor and it was a smooth ride.

I've had to time my rides carefully w/ the rain we've had in FL recently. Good luch and enjoy the ride!

Sounds similar to my Kuota K Factor story..ordered it and it was delayed and delayed with FL 70.3 race and other issues. Finally it comes in and I can go pick it up and it was my husband's birthday so I get it the next day. It is my mini-down time after my A race, I was closed to over trained so my training was very very limited.

So after waiting 3 weeks for it, can only ride it very easy...so I took my daughter with me to keep me slow.

Enjoy many happy fast miles with your new K Factor...it is a great bike
