I don’t have hills where I live either, and If I do go to the mountains I have other bikes with disc to bring, although the ritchey does climb the best, maybe throw the krysiums on it then if I buy them. I was thinking about offering 120.00 I don’t know what’s reasonable. She’s had them for years but she says that she also hasn’t used them in years.

Maybe it's just me, but I have zero interest in CF wheels for rim braking. For a disk brake bike? I'd be all over them if I had enough money. But not for rim brakes. I like my Fulcrums, but I also like the DT Swiss wheels on the Canyon. Both spin nice and easy. But I don't know how to adjust the DTs, whereas I DO know how to adjust the Fulcrums, which is good, because they seem to need it, out of the box.
Another thing about the Zeros, not sure about other Fulcrums, is that there is no rim tape required and they are tubeless ready. Great wheels.
As for adjustment, yes, Fulcrums require routine bearing load. I carry a 2mm key or whatever the size is just in case I feel the need to make an adjustment on the road.

I’ve spent a total of two weeks riding in the state during two visits. One of those weeks was during my cross country ride. I didn’t find it bleak. A couple of days we were flanked by seemingly endless fields of sunflowers.
Canola fields are also pretty.

My son, the power lifter, squats and deadlifts around 625#. At a meet yesterday, he was doing his second lift at 606# and blew both knees out. He was taken by ambulance to an ER and the er doc couldn't understand what happened and just couldn't grasp power lifting. They couldn't produce an MRI operator on a Saturday (Chicago suburb hospital) so they immobilized both legs and discharged him. I drove to Chicago and picked him up. Because both legs are immobilized in a straight position, they laid him semi-flat in the back of my van for the trip.
Taking him to see his orthopedic surgeon this morning, same doc who reattached his bicep after detaching it last winter while doing a 625+ deadlift. Bet his surgeon is going to be real happy.
BTW, I saw the video (which I won't post) as his legs gave out and he fell face down screaming.

I actually have a 996 but would be okay with you punching roof box boy on my behalf.
There’s a Taycan here wrapped in matte purple with orange HREs. I so want to start peeling the wrap when I see it in the parking lot (we apparently have the same grocery schedule).
I have the factory Porsche bars. I believe they’re made by Thule.

But a friend of mine broke her back in a horse incident a couple years ago and she's back to riding horses again.

If I don't bring my bike (still undecided on that) and take you up on your generous Cervelo loan program, I'll bring tools and grease to hunt any clicks, creaks, or squeaks that should pop up.

Only early game for me is Cowboys at Texans.
Maybe we'll check out the new Thor.
