Where do you ride? Those pictures make me want to quit my job and move to the mountains to ride every day.

You can't quit your job. You have a kitchen remodel to pay for.

Hey!

I live in the Vancouver BC Canada area (right on the west coast Pacific Ocean). So if I head north That's the Sea To Sky highway (many of the photos are on that stretch or close to it on some of the valley roads) which goes up to Whistler where the 2010 Winter Olympics were. I also have 3 ski mountains within 45 minutes riding from my place - so for more concentrated climbing those will do

The best part is that I actually live on a pancake flat island that is at sea level. So, recovery days are easily reached Riding out East will take me to the rolling hills and farm lands, and riding south takes me into Washington State USA and Mt. Baker which is a great climb (photo attached from while I was still building my Titanium bike) [Zipp front wheel recall]



But it's funny, when I see photos of people in Italy, France and other parts of the world with all those awesome mountains it makes me want to move to 'those' mountains! The grass is always greener....

PHOTOS - CLINCHER WHEELS MODE

Sir, your rear tire is mounted reverse.

How can you tell? I ride Conti 4000s and can't find any arrows indication rotation direction

There is two "Shark Fin" like icon on the side wall, the bigger/ more stretched one is pointing to is the rotating direction 2.

Hi McGilli,

Found your post from googling for the headset and then stumble into this thread.

Thanks for the write up as I enjoyed reading all the details on the build as I am planning my as well.

Cheers.

[McGilli]

Just some more travel photos!

BTW - I've ordered a new set of wheels... something more... Endurance and comfort oriented.... Won't have them for a few weeks yet... Since I sold my S5 I'm losing the need for aero speed...

[godzuki26]

You take some of the best photos. Can you post more?

You take some of the best photos. Can you post more?

Thanks for saying so.

Absolutely. I plan to keep this thread updated with photos of this bike all over the place. As long as it's dry, I'm out riding

[McGilli]

OH BTW - 3,400km on this bike now.....

Yes - those are Native Indian Tee-Pees in the background....



You can see the Tee Pee skeletons in the background...

[McGilli]

I've put 3,500km+ on this bike in the last 5 weeks

However - this isn't the only bike I ride. If anyone here is on Strava - follow me and check out all my rides, as well as more photos from when I'm on different bikes...
