Rode the Santa Fe Century last week. Had a great time. As a bonus Ben from Cinelli USA let me demo a Cinelli The Machine for the ride, which made the day ohhh sooo much better.let me say that I loved this bike. The full carbon framest and wheels were fantastic. It didn't really help my time though.I have always known that it is not the machine but the man. I had quite the eventful day before the century which did NOT help my time at all. Cinelli's seem to be known mostly in the U.S. for their track frames but their road stuff rips. If I had lots of money I would without a doubt get one of these for my road bike and retire the C-Dale.

then it was onto Motown trail which is in GREAT shape thanks to the moto doods that pretty much have built most of the trails and maintain most the trails in Cochiti.

What is in your audio player? I have Animal Collective's new one Merriweather Post Pavilion in mine. Yet another Baltimore band hittin the bigtime. I first heard of these guys when I saw they had a song called Loch Raven. Which was a reservoir in Towson which had about 40 miles of trails it.Many good memories there.
