Fizik Ares saddle for my new TT build. The black and white is a good colour match to my frame. Need to pop it on the scales when I get home to see if it is the claimed 199gm weight.

197gm, so 2gm under the claimed weight. Not bad.

Couldn't resist these as they were on offer .....ImageImage

One clear benefit of pedals over power cranks and wheels is that they are much easier to sneak in the house ;-)

I bought an Edge 510 after my Edge 500 menu's button stopped working. I'm in contact with Garmin regarding warranty.

I get my goodies sent to my office and unwrap them before bringing them home. No wrapper and no receipt = no evidence!

Took a chance on these shooes as they are dirt cheap on www.planetx.co.uk 60£!! I measured the soles of my mavic´s and compared with the fizik size chart, and found a exact match. Fingers crossed they fit :)
