Bought a pair of Vittoria Pave evo 24 mm clinchers for the winter. I have a pair of michelin pro race 3's I bought about 2 months ago when I was in a pinch and I hate them. I had open corsa cx's prior but the LBS doesn't stock vittoria so when the rear started to show threads I needed a tire like now, which is where the michelin's came from. Can't wait to be back on vittoria's.

- Everyone needs Lightweights, even if they're fat and old
- Parts actually made of metal are SO 10 years ago

I love my airjack. One of the best purchases I've made. With a Sugoi 290 wool baselayer underneath, it's toasty!

Yes of course. It may be a while though. I just sent my powertap back to saris to have them put new bearings in it so it may be like 2-3 weeks but I'll let you know how they are.

My god is that jacket warm
Also cars were giving me much more room when overtaking as well. Felt much safer wearing an all white jacket
