Scott,
Every time I ride my S3 with those new DT190's, I have this silly smile on my face, and all I can say is: "wow", "my oh my", "this has to be illegal". I can't believe how easily I can feel the acceleration with each pedal stroke, the amazing ease of climbing, and the speed on the flats. On streets where I used to be doing 20 mph with effort it is now 22-23. When riding with Lakemont Cycling club, the heavier riders would always blow by me on the downhill stretches- now I can keep with them except for one guy (he has DT 190's, Edge carbon wheels and he out weighs me).

As I told you about my first ride around the south loop of Lake Washington, I cut 6 minutes off my two year old PR. On saturday, in spite of 15- 20 mph head winds, drizzle, and an ice pellet shower, I was two minutes faster than my old PR, and that was after 50 miles earlier in the day!

The wheels stayed true on saturday- so I think we can be optimistic. The Record components are so smooth it is amazing.

Thanks for getting me so stoked for the new cycling season and thanks for checking in!
John
