I got FISTED today at Mission Bay

Boy did I have it wrong! I my seat is up, arm wrests back, extensions back…and the Planet X feels better than a bike has felt in a LONG time. I did get FISTED on my prior ride and just could not get it pegged. Mission Bay in Elgin of course was great - Bill is nothing but a hero of Tri and Val one heck of a classy woman. It is worth the airfare for those of you who are not near to come out and see the photos of Bill at races 20 years ago…the stories and the friends are wonderful and there is no bike that you can not see at Mission Bay.

Here she is with the proper angles…Zipp 909 to be added before my shameful presentation at IMLP on her.

Seat is waaaay to high…just joking, that is one hell of a bike!!! Hope to be at rockman next year.

Is that an open box of checks in the background? Somehow I always thought of you as being more of a Visa EasyPass kind of guy. Little did I know how retro you really are!

Sweet bike!

but one problem: your arm rests are on 180 deg. backward …

Chip, tell me you didn’t get pink just so you could have some redneck mouth off about the “faggie spandex guy on the pink trike” and add to your already legendary list of stories?

I agree…let me see here, you changed your position on or about 7/13 with an Ironman race on 7/22?

Good luck…

My screen is messed up - it looks pink.

What color is it in real life?
