Sold out till Feb, but the keepon kovers are very nice. Never have to remember to put the covers on or take them off, and they protect the cleat quite well. If you were to go walking in mud or deep leaf piles, or something like that, you would still want the full covers, but for typical cover use, the keepon kovers are great.

I know it's not much but I'm not a wealthy man.

White seatpost collar. Don't worry, I measured my seat tube first! I've been meaning to replace my quick release seatpost collar with an allen key one, and I saw it on ebay, so I thought "what the hell? I'll go for it." I've been on kind of an ebay buying streak. I bought a keychain camera and a 1350mah battery with a solar panel on it on ebay within the past week.
This is what I bought:

^^nice wheels neo****zy! You were luckier than I was today. FedEx tracking said the estimated delivery date on my Bora One's would be Monday, but today it said the wheels were on the truck for delivery since 1:30 am. I thought for sure I would get them today, but FedEx didn't show up.

Thanks! I will! Can't wait!
At least they are on the truck, brother! You will definitely get them on Monday for sure! I am still waiting for my Tangente Cork Pads to arrive on Monday so I won't be riding the wheels until I get them. The shop forgot to ship them with my wheels. Boras, eh? That is some nice Italian Schwag wheels too bro! Can't wait to see pics of them on your bike!

As for me... I'd like to switch my road-sport bike from 9sp to 10sp, maybe some Tiagra levers and a 105 cassette & chain. But I'm working about 16 hours a week until business picks up (LBS wrench) so it'll be enough of a challenge to just pay my bills for a couple months here.

Yeah, I only went with the Boras because they were $1300 with mounted Vittoria Corsa Evo CX tires. I actually wanted the 404 tubulars, but couldn't find them for less than ~$2k. The Boras were a close 2nd and at $1300 I couldn't pass them up. How about some pics of your 404's on your bike??? My bike will be built up w/ the Boras and Record 11 by the end of next week. I'll post pics once it's done.

You can't say that. You can't say ONLY went with Boras.
