SSCXWC Report


The weather could not have been worse, I have no idea who won or if there was a winner and this is how my race went in the 3's, as seen on the Seattle times web site; http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2013250095_b1weatherlo25.html
Basically this is how my life is going right now, shit randomly explodes when things are looking good.

The Horror.


At the end of Apocalypse Now and Heart of Darkness (the book the movie was based on) the last words out of Col. Kurtz were "the horror" and that what I said before I died when I stumbled upon this ebay auction; http://cgi.ebay.com/Pinarello-Single-Speed-Dream-Bike-/260679076651?pt=Road_Bikes&hash=item3cb1af0b2b


Only $2500! oh my god! what a deal...oh and to make it even better it's in Hawaii so the shipping is like $300! I would rather have $2500 plus shipping, converted into rolls of nickels and shoved up my.....oh god I died again just looking at it...

Baron x CNC team issue Cross Bike


The new cool team in Seattle, Carbon Neutral Cycling has been graciously sponsered by Baron cycles, you may have seen the porprietor, Geoff making espresso at all the local cross races this year, he also races on the team and is generally a pretty great guy. After some literal teething problems she is ready for Sunday. The great thing about hooking up a race team is that you get feedback from guy's who are going to hammer on these things, not hang them in the garage. True Temper OX tubes with Columbus life stays, 19.2lbs with Rival and a heavy fork, an Edge fork I mean Enve (I'm never going to get used to that) coming soon. This thing fits me so perfect and just glides.



And yes, those are R-sys wheels more info on those soon.

I was once young and dumb and liked riser bars.


Yes it's true, that may have been four years ago, which in fixed gear scene terms is like 20 but still how's counting?



Coming soon Baron x Carbon neutral cycling team issue cross bike, I hope.

A real Cinelli.


This is about two wheeled perfection, with a little longer stem though. The more Cinelli goes the easy money MASH, sell to the lowest common denominator route, the bigger the disconnect they create. A shame really because they still make nice rode bikes, I think? My head has been bashed in by so many vigorelli's that I can't remember the last time I saw an add or any publicity for anything else from Cinelli. Too bad, the XRC stainless bike looks great and that's my point really, no one who buys a can of FOur LoCO is also simultaneosly in the market for a $90 bottle of cabernet sauvignon.

Cross is Fun.


Off to BBQ and drink coffee and beer and look at bikes and talk shit and talk about bikes and stress out and ah....yeah race. What more would you want to do on any given sunday in the fall.
