INCREDIBLE!


Saturday, February 18th
Sorry I'm late in posting yesterday's events.. Instead of writing a blog I was preoccupied with editing a short clip of some footage I took during yesterday's mountain session. So anyway, instead of boring you with meaningless words I'll let you look at some of the photos I took of yesterday's ride... enjoy!




 




















Incredible! すばらしぃ〜!

Sunday, February 19th
Arrived at practice 20 minutes late today, but the weather was perfect! B-team rode hard and the legs feel good! Nothing more to say!



 Okay, now that you've read all the way to the bottom you can view the short clip of yesterday's ride! Hope you enjoy!

DEEP is GOOD!

mild wind, sunny skies, few cars!
Go B team Go!
Today is Sunday and that means practice. Woke up earlier than usual to eat a good breakfast and drink a nice cup of coffee. Yesterday's ride on the deep rims was good, but I'm still not totally convinced that these wheels are worth all the hype. Hopefully today will work out better! Like yesterday, besides the cold, the weather is perfect. Slight wind, and not a single cloud in sight! There's about twenty of us today and and a few guys still testing out the deep rims. B team was made up with Pei, Y-naks, T-nabs, Wakasan and myself. With the deep rims I was able to keep pace the first 7 laps with ease on only my inner chainring. The last laps felt even better in the outer chainring! Is it my legs?.. I wish.. the deep rims work after all! 
鼻穿りしているの何方でしょ!?
My evaluation: If you've got the power to push a big gear with these stiff wheels they are a wonder. Otherwise you'll just get tired real fast (like yeseterday). On the flats, they'll keep on rolling especially above 35kmph.
Menu: Mabo Tofu set
Riding on these wheels won't get you much practice, so I'm back to my old wheels. Maybe one day when I'm rich I'll consider buying some?


Oh, and EASTON is back!
