I don’t mean to be to big of 2008 Madone fan boy, but it is a sexy bike and my lust is driving me ever closer to droping the 6-8k required to put one of these under my butt (For the 6.9 of course). My only hesitation is that I might not get one until…

UPDATE: I bought a Madone 6.9 UPDATE: Here’s my first ride and first review of my new 2008 Trek Madone 6.9 As a follow up to my 2008 Trek Madone post I have some prices. I am sure the price will vary from shop to shop, but here’s what I found out: Pro Series 6.9…
I can feel the fat finding its way back to my waste
Biking makes me hungry. My body starts to tune into the fact that it needs to eat, a lot. I have to say no, but then I see chocolate and I start to think, “a little isn’t so bad.” I live in Utah, a desert. This week it has been raining like crazy. The rain…
2008 Trek Madone
I am writing Ruby code today and all of a sudden I need a fix for bike porn so I do my usual search for Time bikes, this time the Time VXS which is supposed to be a comfort bike. I end up at VeloGoGo and read about a special VXS built for Tom Boonen….
Logan Canyon

More on my bike dilema

I love Calfee, Strong, and Time bikes
I have been seriously investing a new road bike for a few months now. By serious I mean visiting a lot of bike shops, reading every forum I can find and posting questions to some very friendly communities. I have read up on as many manufacturers and their supply chains as possible. I can tell…
Rails Conf Day One Impressions
I ended up with a major migraine yesterday towards the end of David Black’s talk so I didn’t get a chance to finish up the post. Don’t worry I probably won’t. My overall impression of the pre conference tutorials was that they were aimed at beginning users. If you have background in any of the…
