Dang it, somebody buy this (2002 Cannondale frame, Shimano Ultegra & Dura-Ace components, $1200, and I don't need the pedals) so that I don't.
Also occurring on Saturday while I was riding in the mountains was the Climb to Kaiser: 155 miles, 14,000 feet of climbing, half-way is at 9k feet. We saw the pack coming up Tollhouse (6.5 miles at 12%, with a kicker closer to 16% for the last few at the very top), and Rob's done it once. Sounds like something I need to do. An account from someone who did it in '96, an account with sectional notes, a 2003 climber, so you wanna do it?.

Go the other way: I'll soon be posting pics of my 2 person low-tech home made recumbent. A little playing with others bikes has convinced me a real recumbent is the way to go.. and my next high-grade purchased bicycle will be a recumbent as well.
Currently drolling over a titanium Z-Bone.
As for the long low monster.. Nancy say's she'll ride it with me AFTER it's been thoroughly tested. Clem (Caving/Burn Buddy) has volunteered to test it with me :)
In it's maiden run down Lower Brow Road, I quickly realized playing around with minimal steering and no brakes is not smart on a hill.
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your
comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel
they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine,
if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't
try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted
if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and
more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave
such ridicule in place.
