Mooty, I see you travel with your Assos mug, unless you did a take out to bring home your sweets. Too much.
By the way, the plush animals work well in this thread too. Can't just leave them out, they have feelings too, lol.

Mooty takes a "Rest Day"? That would be a first! Of course, rest, can be defined in different ways, like building calories for next ride.........

Another Mooty quote: "If it takes me more than an hour to decide on a purchase"....... I certainly think his processing power is MUCH faster than that!

OK, back to 997 RS Forum.

That is a lot of riding mooty! I ended up picking up the S-Works Ultralight after you mentioned how much you enjoyed yours -- hope you got a commission check from Specialized

In Maui and cycled the Road to Hana and back. Great ride but you need to leave at crack of dawn to avoid the conga line of traffic on that road.

Yes, the 2017 model 3.4s which have a textured brake track that stops well when wet. The weather is always mixed in Hawaii so I wanted a wheel that would work well if it rained. The Roval 32s have a smooth brake track that might not be great in the wet. I see you are running Lightweight wheels which look fantastic!
