Coincidentally, one of the ads sponsored by carmax featured a red Corvette.

You're missing out.

I'm concerned for the guy posting in General from Ukraine who needs a natural USA flag for Bike Day.

Any ideas?

I'm not exactly sure...

"But in Ukraine don't sale natural USA flag."

Maybe means authentic?

Does your coach post here? Never made that connection before.

He does, not a lot and mostly in the Masters Racing forum. Mostly on recovery days. But when he does, (enter most interesting man in the world ad text here).

Busy schedule.

I actually have a strobe tuner I could use for this... that would be an interesting experiment.

Could be tough, since spokes don't have much sustain. Please take video, though!

Oh, I don't need to go to Loyalton. We have plenty of sarcophagi sitting around right here in Cal. They reside in a big pyramid in a place called, Geezer (not to be confused with Giza). lol

No gas out here, but power lines are a possibility. Hitting one would definitely have some bite.

I thought the 41 assured me that enough stem and spacers can make anything fit.

Slap a 180mm stem on that thing and I'd be good to go :thumb:

Seriously, while looking at that bike it occurred to me... Can you angle a saddle left or right if it has one of those integrated "aero" posts? Maybe the clamp has some play to either side in addition to up/down angle. I like my saddles maybe 5-6 degrees to the left for nether region comfort, never even occurred to me that you might not be able to do that on a non-round seat tube.

Straight ahead is all you get.

That seems kinda stupid. Do any of you guys angle your saddle at all, or is everyone 100% straight ahead? For me, the slight angle makes a HUGE difference in comfort.
