I've almost worked off my extra bikes/builds. I bought this higher end 88 Schwinn Tempo hoping she was my size. Instead she was a bit small and a bit heavy (25.5 lbs). She still cleaned up nicely. Her new owner is doing a triathlon in 10 days or so. She's not the best ride for a triathalon but compared to his MTB she'll fly. Another bike on the road - yippee!
I'm buying a Bionx 500w kit for my cross bike. The intent is to get help pushing in the snow, when I'm a bit worn out, or when I have to commute 20 miles in an hour. The bike builds have financed the Bionx and provided some satisfaction in the process.

Another nice bike on the road. Shame it has to finance your unexplainable desire to cheat. ;)

I was moving out smartly on my commute home one day when a MTB pulled out on the MUP a bit ahead. I thought, "I will shake myself off, arise, and smite (overtake) this heathen". I quickly picked the pace up to 18, then 20 and watched him pull away. I finally overtook him at about 24mph. He had a low tech, heavy (75 lbs min) SLA powered front hub. I'm going for the elite Bionx.

So yes, I intend to cheat and have a blast doing it.

Selling your soul for a little more Speed, huh?

Ok, I flew to work today on this baby. Does she pass muster?
