Thanks guys.
Probably a once in a lifetime number. Hard to imagine I can ever beat that again.

^ that is hawt.
i am waiting for my 2018 Sworks Tarmac in ruby stone and acid green. oh, i am not kidding...
and for the first time in my life, i will ditch campy super record and try shimano dura ace Di2 for once.

it's not OT thread. it is about porsches, bikes and dogs... mostly just about passion. the value thing is cool and all but hey, the money is out the door already and you can't take it with u. so that is thatl

Nice numbers. Don’t think I could maintain 90 cadence for 5hrs. How did you manage to find 2,500ft of vert in south Jersey?

Thanks Nizer. That was total, all added up. A little here, a little there over a 100miles.
I started with a 75 cadence earlier in the yr and trained to get to 90. Now I am so used to it, that if I go below, I change up a gear. I guess I got my legs used to it.

Rim brakes or waiting for disc frameset? Rim looks so much better, but I'm heavy enough to appreciate discs.

Mooty, is there some spot on the site where you've had your whole collection in that garage photographed and shared at once - the cars, not bikes =)

90rpm is great. with 50/34 rings, i run 11/27 cassette. at 7% i can only hold 70rpm with 21 cog. and that's on a good day ha. some of the cat 1 cat 2 guys around me pass me like i was going in reverse.

I prefer the sram red. Never done campy but prefer the red wireless over di2. To each his own

That's quite a pace (and avg HR) Raj. Please tell me that was a group ride and not solo.

I've never tried an electric drivetrain. I don't deserve such luxuries, tho I have to say I've struggled a bit switching from Shimano to SRAM shifters...

Only had to read this thread, and Shimano ads have appeared at the top of my Rennlist page!
