I would turn down the volume on your computer first as the high tech camera microphone does not have a wind blocker.

Labour Day Weekend~
 
I celebrated the end of summer with the purchase of a new road bike - 2103 Cervelo S5. Below is a product shot from the web - exact same colour scheme. My iPhone pix inside the LBS came out terrible. My fitting is Thursday evening, so I left baby behind...

marked "Audio" for this purchase. Will spend the rest of my day (Wednesday) finding cash so I can upgrade the wheelset. If successful, will shoot new pix Friday.

That bike is awaiting to make Hallmark Moments.

Thanks, ocswing. All things considered, I have been pushing some heavy metal down the street since 1988! 
 

 
I went in to my shop (Triathlon Labs | Redondo Beach) to order a new track bike. I set my budget at $1,300-$1,800. By the time I left, I didn't recognize the bike

I eventually bought or the price paid. How many of us share that experience?

Won't be able to sleep tonight - I'm beyond excited! I found my upgraded wheelset earlier this afternoon and my fitting is tomorrow. Not all is peaches and cream, however. Despite the shop being 3 minutes from the beach, my test ride has to wait

until Saturday - I have appointments right after I leave.

I got my speedometer today at wallymart. Wired speedometer for $20, not too bad!
 
I tested it out, went on my usual trail, i reached a max speed of 52 km/h while decending down a hill... that's probably coasting speed for some of you but i was quite impressed with myself! lol

Fastest I have ever been is 46mph. I could not believe how loud the sound was of my spokes in the wind. Using a road bike downhill.
