are you trying to tempt me?

2018 might be newer than my 3T. Road bikes don't change all that much, it's pretty much just MOAR aero and internal routing, maybe a little more tire clearance but I find 28s to be pretty OK in that department. I think the market is going to plunge in the coming years....
My S3 doesn't have room behind the seat tube for more than the 25mm GP 5000's I'm currently running (which measure at 27mm).

The groupset might be available if I do decide to stick with what I have. What I probably will have for sale next week is a set of Lightbicycle 35/45mm deep on DT 240's if they might interest you.

Lol, just had "I'm officially Old" moment. Going through the TSA scanner, agent takes one glance, and asks "Do you have any replacement joints, such as a hip or knee?"



Fuck me. :D


I jokingly asked her "Do I really look that old?"
She replied "Not really, but you look the type" :banghead::banana::rolleyes::p

The market is nuts crowded, obviously. Thus my doing it Friday afternoon vs. over the weekend or earlier next week. Two more stops, then Home!

A pause in the action for a very tasty local-ish porter.

White Ranch was fun. Upper Longhorn is sanitized/rebuilt. Probably better runoff management this way, at least. Middle and Lower Longhorn appear to be unchanged. Some mud coming up from the creek, with the layout unchanged since last year (but new since prior years--with switchbacks instead of straight up the slope with the nearly unrideable step things).

LOL, I just got hit on by a very attractive, fit, witty, together woman that lives in L.A. (maybe 52?)
Flattering. she asked to exchange numbers, and I said I would find her on FB or the Insta.
We have a mutual friend in Perú.
It must be rough out there for the single ladies! :p

Went to the local Vietnamese place to get a Bahn Mi. They can no longer get the bread. I had the green salad instead with super-secret Vinegar dressing. They gave us a plate Rice crackers and Pate with pickled onions, jalapenos, cilantro for free. Super awesome Pho without noodles. Just veggies no protein. Fresh Spring rolls. A whole plate actually. You are supposed to float them in the Pho but we didn't know. They brought out more for us to dip them. My friend Sam tried to pay with a hundo and they could not make change and she gave them the hundo. I cannot describe how good the Pho broth was. Best meal I have had in a while.
