Wow. I literally blushed when I read that.
Thanks!
On a gear update note, no new tires yet but I picked up a set of Arkel Samurai panniers today. Super lucky - got the end-of-season demos for 10% off retail (which was already a sharp price)
Also ordered a Topeak Digital Morph because my floor pump broke and I hear some folks here are using the Morph as a floor pump.
Highest praise for "Cyclo-sportif G.M.Bertrand" in Hull, Quebec (the French side of Ottawa). They really did good by me today and I'm going to see if they can also get the slicks I was looking at.
It seems all of you guys with 406's have been bitten by the speed bug! I didn't know the Comets had the option of the reflective sidewall - that's a big plus to me and one of the selling points of the Marathons.
