Got the new ride. Fits nicely and is cadillac-stable on gravel. The rims are way heavier than I would like, so I'm going to swap them out for some Ultegra hubs/Mavic rims I've had around.
Made it to Seneca this weekend (yes, on the bike) with a few extra miles in the county for 68 total. Rode my old Litespeed, which was great. I'm going to scavenge some parts off of it for the 'cross bike, so it'll be my last ride on this fantastic gear. I've given the handlebars to a good friend, and I'll use the headset, rear derailleur, chain and pedals on the new bike. Anybody need parts?
This weather continues to dampen the training schedule. I desperately need a century this weekend, and we're expecting RAIN and SNOW with highs in the 40's. In April. There isn't a gravel road in the county that'll allow me to pass on high-pressure tires. I expect it'll get done,regardless.
