Hed 3's may look nice but are very unpleasant to ride with on windy says. From experience, in stronger crosswinds you'll find yourself fighting to stay straight/ upright. Even in moderate winds, you will notice and compensate for. You might want to save for carbon clinchers with spokes instead.
The next thing I will do to the CAAD10 is get a proper fit (so Jaytron will shut up) and get a new saddle. The stock one is like a ******* hatchet.

Tonight I'm going to take my bike downtown and take some pics. I need a break from stressing about school.

I have five 1950's bikes... three Raleighs ('50, '54, and '55), a '57 Peugeot, and a '51 CCM.
Don't have any 60's bikes and think a PX10 or Paramount would fill that gap nicely and need something from the 40's like a vintage track bike.
Have a bunch from the seventies and eighties as these are easier to find than 40's and 50's models and have a few 90's and an '01.
The "new" Raleigh comes with a nice story...

My computer's in Chinese, and, if you hit space while trying to shift, it changes it to that font for some ungodly reason, but I kept typing with it anyway.
BTW, anyone from the San Jose area going to that bike thing tomorrow? I am going to be up there because this girl from base invited me, thought I could meet some peepz.

Sitting around in a park waiting for riders to show up. No one showing up. I swear midnightridazz have gotten lazy. The moment you add the word challange and erase the words party and drunk, every one loses interest. I have even been keeping slow to not scare people away :-/
It looks like riding alone tonight. https://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=5141040

Naw, **** bike party. If you go, be careful. A lot of drunk people, and just generally people that can't ride in a straight line. Assume that everyone is about to hit you. Bike party is the reason I had to build a new road bike and couldn't ride a bike for half my summer.
I've never been to SJ, only going because some girl asked if I was interested, so I said sure because I need to leave Monterey for a bit.

Today I picked up my new handlebars and wrapped them with Fizik Microtex (it's the only bar tape I buy just like T-Servs are the only tire I buy--exceptions occur when I find a good sale) in a nearby park. It was kinda weird to do the job outside, especially since it was crazy windy today. They're awesome though. Salsa Short & Shallow ergo drops. Now I can actually ride in the drops without feeling like I'm going to die, an opportunity that my dumb tarck drops never afforded. I've never felt so good in the drops before.
