Well said Jon!

It a sort of comic relief! But - give yourself a good 20+ minutes to have time for the 10+ pages! :)

There are always a few that kind of ruin it for everyone else. I just mostly feel sad for them - they are unhappy people! But Peder, you are correct, also some nice posters. Duncan - don't give up - post you bike and what you like about it. Someone will get the message. Some will complain...

Yeah - or just to scratch an itch on your forehead! I've been wearing the Giro attack for a year now - still do it! At the least the visor is easy to take off and put on with one hand at speed, unlike the Casco SpeedTime helmet. In that, you are a prisoner. I almost crashed on my record attempt...

I'm really liking the "hand mirror" : http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000TCGD96?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00 .. but it might be because there just isn't any room on my handlebars for anything else!

You mean you have a real job too! :)

That would be great - I have it pencil'd in already - even more-so the IHPVA race in Northbrook - love that track - so smooth I wouldn't mind getting "up" for this "ride", but I just don't know if I can stomach the way they do the timing with the "punch" cards and all. From the sounds of it, it...

you mean like this: (I guess I never got up to 30mph like you Joe, but it was still pretty fun!)

Rojo: For my Century attempt: Here is my Garmin data: https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/925341870 Here is the Strava data: https://www.strava.com/activities/411212005 The Strava data is derived from the Garmin, but I like the Strava app better because it lets you select any "segment" of...

As promised, here is a link to my Century attempt video. It is from the perspective of the support vehicle as I did not want the camera on my bike this time. It is kind of weird to get used to, but the dashboard stats are always of me, even though you don't see me sometimes as the car jumps...

Greg Report Joe - looking forward to more of your adventures next year. I'm hoping (as I am sure most are too), that you get a VIRB or Go-Pro mounted to your bike so we can "ride with you" on some of those awesome group-A smashing rides you do

Very nice Rick - It is pretty nice to actually get done with your winter project before winter even starts! You are speedy.

My comment about loosing 3 minutes in 100 miles was mostly a joke; being that unless you are in "major" TT mode trying for the absolute best time, it probably doesn't matter. I rode with them way at the bottom all year and just took them off for my record attempt. I was still able to go quite...

I think its just way better to drink everything you need for the ride before you head out. Then you just don't need any water bottles! :) Maybe it's just me, but I have terrible difficulty in removing and put the bottles back when they are so high up on the back of the seat.

Just remember you give up some aero-advantage with the bottles under the seat! Probably at least 3 minutes per 100 miles! :)

That's one thing I love about this group - almost everyone makes super COOL stuff!

Great effort Sam - and impressive top HR! You'll get the KOM - just keep after it!

Thanks again everyone! I think 2016 will be an even greater year - with more "Cruz'ers" riding events, and racing. Can't wait too see what the new year brings - for now: rest, and testing, and planning, and testing, and dreaming some more! :)

Thanks Sam - I forgot this Sunday I am playing in a charity golf tournament. So, it looks like it is probably the 25th, or nothing. Nothing is looking more probable unfortunately for me as I was gone last weekend doing the 100 mile record, and this Sunday the golf tournament. One can only do so...

I also like scramble, ramble, rumble - but then if you mash it with - crescendo - you get: a scram-scendo, cram-scendo, ram-scendo, raam-scendo... or,, a cres-cramble - then there's cris-cringle - sorry - way too early for that.... I need to get back to work -- or maybe just go home now - and...
