I just bought a seat binder bolt. Mine is stripped and I'll have to drill it out or something.

Gonna set the fixed-gear bike up for heart rate zone training and have wanted cadence and speed since I bought the bike. The Edge 25 seems as unobtrusive as possible easily removed as needed.

I got a new chain and some celeste bartape for my Bianchi San Jose. New chain is much quieter than the old one. Went on a 41 mile ride in the country. Tried to climb Merrill Mt. but it was double digit steep and about a third of the way up, my left foot unclipped and that was all she wrote. I don't think I could've made it anyways; I was too deep in the red zone.

Did the ride with ~15.5 mph average speed. I run a 42-15 gearing on the fixed side.

Specialized Power Expert saddle
Replaces the taint torturer aka Fizik Arione saddle. First impressions are that its wider 143 mm and encourages a fast and aggressive ride. Everyone is talking about this new saddle and I had to splurge and even paid retail. 220 grams on my scale is even lighter than advertised.

Also posted in the Great Deal thread:
Leader Bikes I803 Fork 1 1 8'' Carbon | eBay
Edit - It was only $95.40 when I bought it, but now it's back up to $159. So, i got a good deal, but now it's nothing special. Definitely would not spend over $100 to upgrade the VISP.

Also, the podia kit I got is very racefit, and the sleeves are pro length too. Very pleased, and I'm glad I don't have to wear baggy bibs as often.

Scored some King Cages (bling!) for the Space Horse and Twin Six METAL bidons (larger capacity!) at Velo+ on Small Business Saturday.

I had a bit of fun over the holidays.
Reflective Giro Empires:
POC DO Blades...
Some pink POC Raceday gloves to match the pink helmet, these gloves are my favorite, no padding, super comfy, and easy on/off.
Some new kits...
New chain for the cinelli...I noticed the chain on my beater was in need of replacing, so we'll be doing a chain swap. Local guy had the super toughness chain listed in an ebay group for $50, thought that was a decent deal.
Seems the only thing I didn't buy was what I needed, new tires.
