A New Set of Wheels

when you take the measure of your life,
use a large cup
James Kelly

Hey, didn't your wheels used to come with the bike? I mean, are you kidding me? $2500.00 for a set of wheels.
I could have purchased four of my very first bikes for that kind of money. Ya, I know, you're thinking, holy crap, how old is this guy.
Well old enough to know that I can go down hill faster on an ten year old set of Campy Zonda's that cost $550.oo full retail, than on a set of $2500.oo Zipps. Whats that you say, Zipps have dimples. Great, well so does an old guys ass but you wouldn't... Actually scratch that thought, but you get where I'm going with this.
Is it the wheels or the idea of the wheels that makes you go faster.
Tri this, train a little harder, buy a set of wheels for $1500.oo give the other grand to a struggling fellow athlete.
Not only will you be a whole lot faster from the harder training but you"ll be a whole lot stronger for the gift
