#7 Rising

So, tomorrow I'm off to Ithaca, NY to visit Glenn Swan of Swan Cycles. When I return, I'll have #7, my shiny new time trial / triathlon bike.

Why am I making the 11-hour round trip just to get a bicycle? I think that, since I'm getting a TT bike, buying one from a world champion TT cyclist is somehow a good idea. That way, if he says it fits, it fits!

Cycling is such an esoteric field. You often have to look long and hard to find quality people, and when you do, you make every effort to keep in touch with them. (Don't worry, if you're reading this blog, you're a quality person, too.)
