Just found Zen & the art - loved the info and style. Bike info re: what gives value in bike really interesting. Kind of a old newbie. Been running for 30 years - many marathons - but at age 59 picked up tris - doing IM Wisc in Sept 2012. Now 60 and training for IM Wisc 2013. Know very little re: bike tech - so appreciate the insights. Also - Pretty Lights rock.
