Stupid tubes
I am battling a bit of a tube curse at the moment. Yesterday as I was riding out to the RMR to bitch slap Fox I pinched (at 130psi?!). Normally not a bit deal right? Well, I put on my Cosmics since the Reynolds are now on the cross bike. The Comics have a deep rim so that means I should have grabbed a tube with a long stem, I didn’t. So now I am sitting at a truck stop waiting for a ride. Bummer. Today in the 10 blocks between my house and the shop I flatted both tubes on the cross bike. Oh well at least I was at the shop. On the positive side I put on my sweet new Reynolds fork and got in a few hot laps at Sugarhouse Park. That thing knocked a full pound off the Kelly, sweet.
Still sitting the fence on where to race next weekend. Here or Seattle? I have always wanted to do El Gato’s race but damn that is a long way to go, I would get to race twice but still. Then again there is a beer tent. Hmm, who wants to drive to Seattle with me?
