So, as for me... I will go to the other side of the Internet and look at stuff. Might drop in for a few minutes here and there but as this next 2 is VERY busy and got lots to do. And frankly, I just feel BF'ed out.

I am sure Jen will enjoy it.

Have fun on your "break." The interwebz never have a "Holiday" feeling to me. So, the "other side of the Internet" will likely feel the same as this side.

Oh thought you ordered them last week, more than likely you'll get them earliest Fri or Sat. This time of year packages from PBK take longer than usual, be patient grasshopper

I ordered before Thanksgiving, shipped on the 17th of November and recieved it on the 3rd of December.

I just finished 45 mins on the trainer. Recovering from a sinus infection doesn't make it any more fun.

It doesn't warm up the air; I don't even cover my mouth with it.

I repaired a tubular tire tonight.

Major suck, and I'm not sure if it worked. I used a regular patch on a latex tube.

Good idea if you are riding in temps below 32F (0C). If just a little below freezing I tuck my chin out, if well below freezing I pull the lower part up to my mouth.

If you notice shortness of breath, wheezing, or chest tightness you probably do. See your GP about the possibility of an albuterol inhaler.

I am lusting after new wheels for next year.

The top contenders:

Dura Ace 7850 (the mixed carbon/aluminum ones)
Hed Ardennes
Williams 38
PSIMET

Any thoughts??
