I have a pair of Zipp 303 tubs with unused Vittoria Corsa CX's (unglued) hanging in my garage that I'm waiting for the appropriate venue to race them on.

so yes....

Yes, primarily road racing and crits currently, though I did use them for TT and tri races in years past.

so, point here, if you're racing tubulars, you'll want to sign up for our circ drive. one of the things i'm doing for folks who've signed up is putting them on a list for certain items they may want to buy. this is pursuant to one such item.

and, those who've been on my early warning list recently will tell you, what gets sold, and the prices, it's a feeding frenzy. whatever it is getting offered, regardless of how many units, are usually gone in minutes, not hours, days or weeks.

so, if you think you may be in the market for tubulars this year, sign up and get yourself on that list.

Say we've signed up for said list. Would we know we're on it? Have yet to receive anything from it, even a confirmation of joining.

you received a confirmation immediately upon pressing return, or whatever it was. in green text. or you got an error message in red text. no, we don't send confirming emails when you join.

I race on two sets of older narrow tubulars of varying depths. Bought them in the ST classified a few years back.

My question...I signed up during a similar circulation drive a couple of years ago and get the newsletter via email every Tuesday. Do I have to sign up again? Or am I already good?

gotta sign up again. this is a circ drive for saris (which is saris, powertap and cycleops) and xterra wetsuits. they want you on THEIR mailing list. which, once you're on it, you can unsubscribe from at any time.

since we don't share your emails with anybody, anytime we run a circ drive for somebody ELSE you have to sign up AGAIN for whatever promotion we're running. in order to bribe you into signing up for THIS circ drive:

1. we have a raffle, lots of free stuff.
2. i'm giving away additional stuff, willy nilly.
3. i'm doing some special mailings, with stuff i can't afford to give away (such as some continental competition tubulars in 22mm blackchili; bulk buy 25oz water specialized water bottles; etc.), but which i can afford to sell at prices well below you'll find anywhere (but limited to those who have honored our efforts by signing up for the circ drive).

so, we love all slowtwitchers. we respect every slowtwitcher's right to place his email where he wants, and to withhold it from wherever he wants. but, honestly, maybe 1 in 20 slowtwitchers who read today will sign up for this circ drive. so, while you can withhold your email, i will honor those slowtwitchers who're honoring this effort.

so, if you miss the mailing i send out tomorrow, that's fine, you can wait and buy your tubulars for 30 percent off retail, which is 50 percent over what the folks who get tomorrow's mailing will pay (until i'm out of tubies).

Yes,
I have a pair of HED Stinger 60's on my 2001 Silver Cervelo P3 aluminum. Currently using Vittoria Evo CX tires.

Looks great, got the frame used a few years back and built it up. In my opinion, maybe the best budget try bike around!
