Ride Description:

I was ready to roll out solo, but Craig came met me and we did about 25 miles. Craig turned back and I went ahead for a few more miles to get a total of 60. Great to have Craig join me for a few miles.

This was my first day trying out the FLO wheels and the Quarq power meter and I really like both upgrades. Plus, Curtis has the drive train fine tuned and running sweet!
