Yep, doing solo again this year. Are you thinking about doing it again?

Definitely! Looking forward to racing on a bike that actually works this time :) Are your parents bringing that badass RV again?

Sweeeet! Are you rolling the Carbon X? Not sure about my parents. They will be in New Mexico RVing, but may try to make it back in time for the race.

Actually, I just pulled the trigger on an S-works Era! I think your mom's pancakes fueled my first couple laps :)

Ugh Specialized! :) I cracked my S-Works (actually two cracks) and spent the last four months dealing with their customer service. In the end, no warranty, but they will sell me a crash replacement frame for $2200. :( I'm in the process of selling all my Specialized bikes. If you know anyone that wants a new 2010 S-Works Epic w/2009 parts, I will have one for sale in a few weeks. Cheap.

Yeah, I saw your pic from the Moab race. How did that happen?

The downtube appeared to fail from a rock flying up from the front wheel. The seat tube crack was found by the bike shop, but Specialized would not admit it was a crack.
