You can get formula hubs at Urbane for sure. My formula/cxp22 wheelset seems to be holding up so far, I ordered it from bicyclewheels.com (despite an original budget of $350/4 I had to downsize to real small budget stuff for now) - Been running it since Jan 1st and have ridden through just about everything we've had thrown down so far over a few unseen potholes and all seems nice, I've not yet had to true or anything - I guess it is a crapshoot, as I've heard bad stuff too.

I was genuinely surprised to see snow this morning, totally didn't know it was supposed to happen. Other than a unfendered wet ass problem, no different though.

Does anyone have a desire to ride to Whitby this weekend? I'm thinking of going there as a trial run for my future commute, my plan is ride there, eat/drink/smoke/whatever then ride straight back - I'm wanting to do it Saturday because I'd like to join the Randonneurs on Sunday for their ride.
