LaBar Update: Red Jacket Blue Sky Cycling Team

Well I'm officially on a cycling team.


I'm racing Expert/Elite/Pro class now... and I'm not DFL.


My legs feel good. Two rides over 30 miles off road this week. Pre riding the upcoming race course.


I'm riding tubeless again. Feels good. The tires I'm running are michelin's harder compound, heavier XC tire.


The 2.25 crossmark tires are almost too tempting.


New frame, shifters, tires, chainrings, cassette, chain, peddals, Grips (bartape), and top cap--new fork coming soon too.


Oh, new favorite quote:

"Here's the routine I'd advise for the evening before a race: a pheasant with chestnuts, a bottle of champagne and a woman."

-Jacques Anquetil
