Eliot's combination of insight and likability is a treat. Loved his commentary in the box on race day too.

It's like that time the Syndicate invented a new wheel size.

Reece Wilson's celebration was a joy to watch. Thirion's run was also a joy to watch--fast and ragged AF. Glad only one body was shattered by the gap--seemed almost too risky in those conditions. Not sure at what point you just make everyone take the ride-around.

Video: Where to Spend & Where to Save on Bike Parts
I've built a few wheels now just using Sheldon Brown's webpage and 2 zipties. It's surprisingly precise as long as you're patient and have a quiet space to work in (to hear the scraping). I imagine a truing stand is quicker, but I wouldn't be able to tell the difference in the finished product. The wheels stay true much longer than my previous OEM alloy wheels. Not an efficient use of my time, but satisfying.
