I'm waiting for the overnight try out! I realize that's difficult this time of year.
Hurray for a new bicycle!
I'm still waffling.
Trooper has conceded a great deal of ground to Endurance. Voyager and Huck are still in the running, as is Clyde. Pudge made a surprising surge today, given that the bike is not svelte or a bantamweight by any measure. Cincinnati is alive but fading fast as we round the clubhouse turn and enter the home stretch. But no final decision has been made, as yet.

2 years agoBe sure to check that the bottle opener arrived intact.
