A Case of the Rambles

I feel the need to update but there isn't really anything earth shattering going on right now. Nothing new, just more of the same.

I put a carbon Easton EC70 stem on my cx whip. I know better, I do. It just looks so hot. I'll ride it for a day or two and then take it off. Just needed to change something.

My first cx race for keeps isn't until November 3rd. I'll be missing New England Worlds for my honeymoon 'cross the pond in Ireland. I think if I tried to bring the bike to do a race I'd get divorced. Besides, I couldn't find any races. I love you dear.

Milford CX

I raced in Milford. The course was cool. I road McCormic's wheel for a solid lap then made a few bobbles and took up residence off the back. I felt like shit and never came around. Everything sucked. After my sweet ride in Jersey, I put some expectations on myself and did my usual sucking of the turds. That and my legs felt hallow. Maybe too much riding? Who knows for sure.

I'm super excited about Interbike. I wasn't able to talk myself into Vegas but it's always cool to troll the interwebs looking for the new crap I'm going to lust over for the next few months.

I guess now is as good as any to annouce that yet another company has taken pity on me and it hooking a bro up with some swag.

I'll be running Industry Nine wheels this 'cross season. Now pull up your chair nice and close because I'm going to say this once: tubeless. Ok, discuss amongst yourselves. I'll give the wheels the attention they deserve when I get the anodized amazingness sometime after interbike.

It's almost beer o'clock and I'm outtie.
