Today is Gratitude Wednesday and I would like to start by thanking Jason at
Edge Composites for all the killer stuff this year. First off, the 38mm carbon clinchers are just awesome, plain and simple. I have been riding these wheels for a few months now and I am still impressed each time I ride them. From daily riding, to serious training to actual commuting, I have not taken them off my
Helix since they arrived. Totally sick...and well worth the money. Skip the silliness of having a "training"
wheelset and a "race-day" set, the Edge stuff is solid and built to be ridden all the time. So thanks again. It is amazing the fun you can have with your fellow Industry peers especially at an authentic Bavarian
restaurant after a few liters of beer and some ass
paddling by a random chick followed up by a ride in the back of a pick-up truck down the
Las Vegas Strip. Enough about that, but you should have been there.
On the second part of my
gratitude list is my friend Paolo from
Prologo saddles. Once again, another great person and someone who is way more
passionate about something I have given little thought to over the years. While I always understood the benefits of a quality saddle, I usually went with something tried and true and just repeated. For years I ran the Flight and now I wish I had met Paolo years ago. They really think through all the details and design features when coming up with a new saddle. I have a
Scratch on my road bike and a
Vertigo Ti on the mountain bike...I am all about them too. Each has it's own unique feel, but at their suggestion I went with this setup. I have switched and will never look back. And don't just take my word for it, check out their elite pro list on their site and tell me you have not heard of any of those guys.
