Well, one day till the race...

My weight is down, which should help.

Under 130 LBS this morning this is 4 - 5 pounds less than last year...

But I have not been sleeping well the last 3 nights so I am tired. I hope to sleep well tonight...



BIG NEWS


I just fell ass backward into a pair of race wheels. The deal was too good to pass up...

My dream wheels...

I am now an owner of a Zipp 202 wheelset, Zipp front hub and PowerTap rear hub (pics soon)...

Came with Zipp skewers and a Dura-Ace 11/23 cassette (which I will not be using for the races)..

Shaved some weight off the bike...

I put them on last night and changed the brake pads to Swiss Stop - yellow...

Now I need to figure out this tubular thing. I need a spare and some Vittoria Pit Stop just in case...

Where is DDYTDY when I need him...



I know I broke the cardinal sin of racing and changed my equipment prior to the race but later tonight I will take the bike out for a spin, in the rain...



Damn, Zipp 202 with a PT...

Never did I think...
