greetings from columbus

probably one of the hardest things in my training schedule to figure out is trying to fit it in with a 40 hour week.

columbus ohio has been a common workplace for me for years and today i found a new training area - sunburry. nice rural area out of the city and i can ride out of the hotel.


got an ergon grip question the other day - his keen eye caught the fact that i am running the trigger styled grips with twist shifters. note, this is not by choice as they are setup on my winter training bike and that is the only type of shifter i have. and, the super light weight carbon grips are on their way -- i do believe mr. kerkove has got one pair of the new ones in his mits.

also in ergon news, keep an eye out for their new backpacks that has a pretty unique design that allows full access to your back jersey pockets.


that's it for tonight, tired beyond belief tonight.

Yeah, there is no rule that says you can't run the non-twisty Ergons on you twisty equipped bike. Personal preference at this point...

Keen eye ?? no not really was bored at work(didn't really want to do the work I had to do) and I have a really nice monitor compared to the one at home.

How do you like that setup?

setup is pretty nice - though, i will switch to triggers with my race bike.

i usually use grip shifters for my winter/bad weather bikes as they are cheap and easy to shift when i have my huge winter gloves on.

the ergon's are awesome - if i still used grip shifters, i honestly think i would change to triggers to use the full erogon grip (not the shorter ones they have for grip shifters) just becuase the grips are really nice. they are seriously the most comfortable grips i have ever had.
