2005 called

So Pinarello debuted it's "new" Classics bike today. A soft-tail. Journos, and the #fauxperts are all atwitter.
Too bad that several other companies have produced soft-tail, and suspended designs WAY prior to Pinarello's "discovery".
Klein, Ibis, and Cannondale to name a few...
And let's ask Museeuw how his fill suspension Bianchi worked out for him in 1994, when he was chasing Tchmil. The #fauxperts wouldn't know anything about that though...


 Coming soon, to a Fondo near you...
Honestly, I'm shocked there's no disc brake version...yet...
It's only $5750. I'll take two.

And here's a Klein Reve from 2005...
And here's the Bianchi monstrosity from '94...
Edit : Moots YBB
Ekimov's Trek from 05

See people, it's nothing new. Nothing to see here...move along...

Actual fun rides this week. Finally feel like things are getting back to normal after The Devil's Cleanse.
The pollen though...holy shit. the scale goes to 12. The level has been hovering somewhere around 137.
Felt really good Tuesday, and actually rode well, including one nearly 15 minute pull on 302 that no one seemed to want to take over.
Tonight, meh...
Tired and mentally fried. Taking three children to the zoo for three hours, DURING Spring Break, will, in fact, deaden one's legs, and brain.

Flanders is this weekend....
Is it bad that I'm hoping for rain and wind in Belgium?
