Clearly, I should have been less cavalier with my bike!
It does not look nearly as nice as the one in the picture.

Guys, remember, all speeds are relative. As is beastliness :P
I aspire to be more beastly. ;D

I have always been a poor hill rider, IMO. Slow, steady and determined is my pace.

As far as the zipp wheels, they are first generation zipp. They were my husbands racing wheels for flat triathlons.
I was considering selling them, but Jim convinced me to use them myself instead!

 Wonderful downhill and flat. Others give the bike admiring nods.
They are a **** to handle in crosswinds though.

But Jim thinks they look really sharp with the bike, and as you know Svend, Jim is all about fashion and style. ;)

I will post a picture later in the week so you can admire my middle-aged set up. 8)
