More Miles, More Rain, More Velobase

Well, we’ve had a few weeks reprieve from the rain.  And in the lull in the monsoon of 2007, I managed to get some miles in.  Including a very satisfying 100k in Paris, TX on the 21st.  It was a great day to be out on the bike, light winds, heat wasn’t too bad.  All said it was a fun trip, and a fast day on the bike with an over all average speed of 18.6mph.  Quite happy with that result.  Now I just need to get around to rewriting my mileage log on my website so I can keep track of the miles.  Maybe that is something I’ll have to do after I get VeloBase completed and the winter months start settling in.

But, looks like rain is back in the extended forecast.  And by extended I mean it’s going to rain for like the next 5-7 days.  Just in time for the weekend.  One which I already have some 80mi of riding planned over the two days.  I just installed my new wheelset on the Flyte to test out before building the Serotta up when it gets back from paint here in a few days.  Went with a build that is just solid: Mavic Open Pros laced to Campagnolo Daytona hubs.  Daytona was the name of the Centaur line some years ago.  They look to be in great shape and should have a ton of miles left in the rims and the hubs. 

And of course, more VeloBase.com.  I have now moved all of the domains to point to the application.  Meaning of you visit VeloBase.com, VeloBase.net or VeloBase.info – you’ll end up on the component database site.  As of last night the component database had 199 components.  I have uploaded 2 articles, there are around 50 entries in the Glossary, and several dozen links in the Additional Resources list.  Additionally there is now a Gear Calculator, and I’m about finished building the fork geometry calculator as well.  Just a few little tools to make the site more useful for more uses.  I still have some more features to add to the component database, a few tools to add, and general enhancements to make.

    Стоит ли убивать дураков которые бояться написать на мыло (котрое не дали при предъяве), а просто какаются когда их берут в руки и защищаются тем что слышали про nmap, вместо того чтобы ответить? Что скажите?
