Yeah I got it about 2 months ago with just under 42K on it. 2k miles in 2 months isn't too bad I don't think.

T-Rock... EXACTLY... I'll be packing my Textile pants to cover shorts to watch the race in. I don't have another jacket so I'll still be wearing my A* one...

I've ridden with jeans, gloves, jacket helmet and hiking boots many times... don't think it's squidly... flipflops, Tank tops, and shorts are squidly... and in the end it's your choice anyways...



Drewpy... I'm shoot'n for 40k by the end of 09... I'm at... 6 (I think)

just a thought, I can pick up or have somewhere one of those cables that lock to which we can attach any gear we dont want to carry around...have used it down here with great results, and I HATE carrying my gear around so I will def have it on me!
