07.24.06 - random pre NORBA 24 updates



ah, short ride to spin out the legs tonight. been working on some new pedal technique that i'll go into after i get back from nationals. wobblenaught came up with up it and i have been trying to incorporate it for the past couple of months. very interesting stuff - nat ross has been using it this year, along with the UCI ranked #1 woman.

thanks to celeste out at schwalbe for sending me some of their little alberts - been running these tires for the past two seasons with great results. very good hook up in all conditions. been generally running them around 40-42 pounds, around 35'ish when the conditions get wet. very good either out west in the sand or in the peanut butter mud out here in the east. awesome all around tire.

looking like moderate tempertures for this weeekend, but it looks like it is getting some rain out there.

new helmet for me (see the pic above silly). some super genius (myself) decided that black was a great helmet color as it would look good with my kit and hide the dirt. hmm.....

well, at some time during the first hours of the 24 hours of conyers when the 94 degree heat was beating down on my black helmet, i decided that maybe a lighter colored helmet may be better.

that's it - gots to make some calls and plan my departure for thursday.

sologoat out.
