Bees

No, I didn't get stung at race which seems to happen when I do the Kamas to Evanston race. My daughter's softball team was invited to have their team pictures taken on the field before Saturday's Bee's game.

Sunday was the first real test of the repaired road bike. I did a 90 minute spin Saturday to make sure everything was okay before I did a long ride. Chad and I decided to ride from Park City over to Hanna and back. We made it to the top of Wolf Creek and decided we were too tired to continue on. The road bike did okay other then a flat coming back over Jordanelle, the rear skewer was a little loose and discovering my 12 cog was bent (probably from the crash). I think I may run a 12-26 on the back instead of the 12-25 I usually run and see how I like having that little extra in the low gear.

Dura Ace 12x27 is where it's at baby.

I have a SRAM 11x26 if you're interested. Only thing is it's 10 speed. I think I also have a 12x23 and 12x25 Ultegra 10 speed cassette. In fact, I may also have a 12 from an old 9 speed cassette if you want to save a few bucks and just replace the bent cog.

I think a 27 is too big. I decided on a 12-26 and I've got a 12 from an old cassette I can use.
