They ride swell but it's been awhile since I've frothed over a bike related purchase. Maybe it's time for a new bike.
The Park tool (CBP-3) for removing and installing Ultra Torque bottom bracket bearings, a KMC X10.93 chain, and Ultra Torque bearings.
New 2000 lumen headlight for winter commuting.
Some new winter gloves.
This morning...extra boring:
Gu's
Tube
CO2
Oil
Cycling tights
2013 EA70 wheelset at a sweet price from Pricepoint.
It looks like the 2014 models are significantly redesigned, wider rims, less and traditional J-bend spokes.
Park Tool chain cleaner. I was skeptical, but I was sick of cleaning the chain manually. Much to my delight it works really well. Money well spent.

Did you get the tubbies or the clinchers?

Clinchers.
Just purchased a 2011 Specialized Secteur Comp Compact. This is my first road bike since I bought a Murray from K-Mart 20+ years ago. I don't have much to compare it to but the bike sure rides nice. I traded out the clips for straps but I may change back after some experience on this bike. I'm also beginning to understand why I have seen so many bikers with cycling tights.
I have a question, would anyone have a suggestion for a mirror (that fits this bike)? I find it a little unnerving not to be able to see vehicles coming from behind.

Recently just picked my new 2013 Felt AR4. Love this bike, haven't been able to keep off of it yet.
Yup, it's fairly water repellant. We moved into a spell of cold, wet weather. IF I can get off my butt and get in some rides it will help.
Mavic Ksyrium Elite S wheels with Mavic Griplink and Powerlink tires (previous units were Shimano RS10's and dirt cheap Forte 28c tires), Ultegra 11 speed upgrade.....which included an 11-32 cassette, a new rear derailleur, a new right side brifter, and new Ultegra chain (previous drivetrain was 10speed Ultegra 6700). All of that lead me to a new left side brifter, as the older Ultegra didn't match the new brifter, and a pro bike fit.
I think I'm done for awhile.
