No worries. I will definitely try to do a 100 by the end of the year, so if you're game we can set something up.

naw i feel ya. ive never put in a good ride on campy before.

i like the way sram feels (lever shape, shifting action) and the lightness so ive chosen it for my last few race bikes. all of my other bikes are shimano, which has tended to be much less problematic ime. not that sram is particularly crappy, but shimano is just rock solid

I almost went with the waterproof phone, got GS4 instead. I have an almost whole box of ziploc sandwich bags, though.

That's awesome. I played trumpet for 6 years growing up.

Today I did some sprint work at the track.
