Lol it was true BUT like I mentioned, it was just one of those amazing days. Though I do have to say that I have been riding a lot more since testing these wheels. Which in turn has really helped with making my rides easier. I feel so much stronger and my recovery much faster. With 2 kids under 5 its not always easy to get out as much as I'd like but testing these wheels and only having them for limited time has put me in a situation to get out more and take advantage. I'm really enjoying my riding right now. Plus I lowered my seat post a smidge (hot or not no no lol) as well as tilt up my saddle just a hair, my position has dramatically gotten more comfortable.
