Charmaine’s New Wheels

It’s been a long time since I’ve been on my bike. I have really been missing it. I was hoping to do a lunch ride with Charmaine last Friday, but she went for a ride in the morning and I wasn’t going to stop her. I thought we might ride on Saturday, but she wound up breaking a spoke on that ride (I had to pick her up). She took her bike to the shop to get the spoke fixed and they wound up replacing (and seriously upgrading) her whole wheel set. I guess Specialized had a problem with some of the DT-Swiss wheels they shipped this year and dropped them as a manufacturer because of it. So the replacement wheels are Specialized and they look really sweet.

We finally got a chance to ride on those new wheels today. Charmaine was heading down to Julie’s to meet the piano tuner at 2, but we still managed to get in a quick ride before she had to go. It wasn’t fast, but it was really nice to be on two wheels again. I wonder what this will do to my run tomorrow.
