08.23 - tifosi review

is now posted at the SPEEDGOAT.COM BLOG. i did a write up on the Q3, quam 1.5 and the backlash. check it out.

also, a work in process has started on my new page ERNESTOMARENCHIN.COM. it's going to be a slow process as a buddy is helping me with it in his spare time. the second set of revisions should be up sometime this week, with hopefully the last update some time next week to finialize everything.

in the meantime, this site will stay up as i like some of the features and it is pretty easy to use.

in other news...

cranks have been ordered for my main moots cross bike. after hours of looking at weights, price, carbon vs. aluminum, etc - what we came down with for the best weight option without going the carbon way was the 2 piece dura ace with a 42 middle ring and salsa chain gaurd on the outside. just didn't want to go the carbon route.

and - looks like no interbike for me this year. vacation days are whittling down to negative and it is basically looking like i could either do a race or go to interbike. so.... this year, i am passing. though, if you have never been there and get the opportunity to go, i think it is defintely worth the trip just to see the spectacle of it all. bikes, bike geeks and pretty girls as far as the eye can see.

with that, gotta run.
