I had forgotten what a fat pig the Calfee is. With Fulcrums With the Mavics Unfortunately the front hub is making noise so I am going to have to take it in for a check-up.

I got some Ksyriums. These things sure come with a bunch of accessories. I also tried on the Sidi Wire Vent Carbons but they were just not nearly as comfortable as my S-Works. I just have trashed the S-works on gravel, etc. so I need some new ones.

Decided against the Easton's but I am now looking at a Mavic Ksyrium elite s and a Zipp 101 for the travel bike. Which on do you guys prefer?

I might have to pick up those EC70 for the Calfee. I wonder if they are thin enough to fit in the travel case?

I think if I got the custom case for this setup it might be about pocketable though the little S100 will probably remain as my preferred little camera.

Even refurb products come with warranty papers, etc. for the short warranty. I would assume anything new would come with warranty and some minimal advertising blurb or something.

I guess this is the way new Canon EOS-M lenses ship? Nothing in the plain white box but the lens in bubble wrap.

You should, that is if you can't get f1.2.

I do not know why the 18-55 kit shows up as being more expensive than the pancake kit since both lenses sell for the same price. I definitely don't like working with such a slow lens. Who wants a whole flower to be in focus when the D800 and 35 f1.4 can give me such nice blur?

Most of them are gifts. They will just have to suffer. I should have a 22 f2.0 at my office tomorrow.

Some more samples. For $300 I cannot find a whole lot to complain about.

I certainly like the feel of the camera better than the S100, which I always thought was too small, but I do miss the controls of the S100. I do not know where my S100 is but I will try to compare focus speed on the two, I think they are pretty similar. The touchscreen does seem to work well. I will try to take it out this afternoon to really try it out.

Amazon. The focus is really quite slow, even with the latest firmware. Not terrible but I would not expect 100% success on shooting things that move.

Some Jpegs off the camera using intelligent auto. ISO 100 ISO 3200 ISO 6400

They charged me for the 22mm lens kits. But I really have no use for the giant zoom lens.

I have speed and cadence on the Calfee. Never bothered adding one to the Cervelo as the depth of the Zipps and the width of the frame makes alignment pretty tight on the Cervelo.

I noticed on a ride recently that my Garmin 800 was cutting out and showing really low MPH when I was under a few trees. I looked down and say it go from 20 to 8 without slowing down as I passed under a few trees.

I will most likely be in Switzerland all of December so skis instead of bikes for me.

Looks like a nice deal. I ended up grabbing a ThinkTank Mirrorless Mover 5.

I think you would have to be towing Brent in a trailer for me to be able to drop you.

I don't know, I haven't seen you post any Strava results so you may just be sandbagging and I would just get left in your dust.
