Heh, I like addictive. The entire experience of building wheels has brought me to a slew of conversations I would never have had otherwise. It has been fantastic. Being 58, I don't feel a day over 57 with all these new convos.

I admit to having an unrealistic view of older Rolf wheelsets, but it is that girlfriend of yore memory thing. I am not going to set any records. What I may do is have fun... and if it is addictive while I am at it, cool.

Am reviewing several wheelsets now and will probably make a poor decision, spend too much time rectifying mistakes, more time learning what I don't know, and be uber happy while doing it. Cannot express how much I appreciate being outside, in the elements that should be cold for here but have been temperate for too long like almost all winter too long (drought conditions), and having a great time servicing my older bike. So if I get addicted to tooling up some hinky choices, I'd be thrilled to have the chance.
