Well I got most of the bits needed for my project, and it is coming along quite well. today I spent the day putting the easy stuff all together. It was quite hot, but in the end, everything looks great.
HPD Moonlight Bike Ride
Courtney and I did the HPD Moonlight Bike Ride and she got to ride the Red Rocket. Shame this bike is being retired this weekend, and she got the last ride, but as the Phoenix, this bike will rise from the ashes later this summer in a new project bike I am sure.
2010 Trek Elite 9.9 SSL
Another day, another bike update. So I have abandoned my Ibis Mojo Project and proeeded with my Trek 9.9 SSL Project. After an initial investment of too much money, I have received my new frame. 2lbs 12.5 oz of pure carbon make up this rig. Hopefully this will be completed in 2 weeks as that is my goal.
Cane Creek Goodies
After coming home from Jennifer & Kurt’s Wedding in San Antonio, I was happy to find some Cane Creek goodies in my mailbox. Peter Gilbert was awesome enough to get these out to me and some extra goodies. The headset I ordered was a 110.ZS (Zero Stack) Tapered for my 2010 Trek Fuel EX 9.8. It came with an FSA garbage that is actually squeaking right now. The cool top cap is from the S100 I believe . . . See the Photo Gallery for more pictures
