Days of "The List"

Well, it's over. With the possible exception of a few cross races, which will be done more for the joy of beer hand-ups than results, the race season has seen its last days.

And, as always happens this time of year, I made "The List." It's a list in and around cycling, but outside of that, it's open and unfocused, part review and prelude, and open to edits without prior notice.

At the moment, it looks like this:

- Review the NUE series calendar
- Warranty my Bonty Wheels and/or kick down for a new set of 29er wheels (suggestions?)
- Do more XC races next year
- Get the Evil Unicorns racing again
- Get dropped by Corey more often on Saturday mornings
- Sell the Niner and get a geared bike for gravel to single track rides
- Spend less training time riding solo

Now it's a matter of wondering what additions will come next... It's inevitable.

Get a computer with cadence? :)

Skip: Surely you know a good wheel smith in the Lincoln area. You need a set of wheels laced up to some fine hubs. Kings, DT Swiss, or whatever laced to some Dusters, or Stan's Arch rims. Then go tubeless and get that geared 29"er.

It'd be golden.

Nah, keep rockin' the single and check out some of the NUE races. 100 miles is a good distance and there are plenty of good races on the circuit.
