WIWTBT Vol. 2

Saturday was beautiful--not at all like February should be. As such, I took the time to swap out the Hometrainer tire on my Synapse for a Hutchinson Fusion so I could head outside. The weather was perfect. Though I wore arm-warmers, I got away with short-fingered gloves.

Today, I woke up to around 2" of snow on the ground outside. Today is February again. If I'm going to ride, it'll be on the rollers inside. I need to swap out my tire again to do such.

Today, I want two things:
1. Ritchey Deep Section Road Wheels (available as front and rear wheels--not paired up, for some reason--at Bike Nashbar (click the banner on the right)). These are 50% off now, so the set can be had for around $225. They aren't fantastic, but Ritchey generally makes some good quality stuff for a reasonable price.

2. Shimano 105 10-speed Cassette. $59.45 at Nashbar. I need this to make the transition between bikes even easier. It'd have to be 12-25, just like my current Dura Ace setup.

Bonus item: I only have one Hometrainer tire right now. I'd get another from www.BikeTiresDirect.com (direct link) so I wouldn't be wearing out any road tires unnecessarily.
