Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Custom Wheels
I recently purhased a set of hand built wheels from a local shop. I will never buy another pair of stock wheels ever again.

I've got wheels on order from Psimet (I'm home by the way). I ordered from him for the same reason - custom hand built for my needs and riding.
