New Wheel Fever

Oooooh crikey.

I went down to Pearsons yesterday afternoon and those nice people "convinced" me that I needed a new set of wheels. Well actually I blame Jo who started the cogs in my head at a CR few weeks back :wink:

Having read up what's what on other threads on the forum I went off looking for either some Campag Eurus or some Fulcrums. I came back with neither. Well actually I came back with nowt cos they're still being set up. What are they...? I got a pair of Specialized Roval Fusée which I hope'll be ready for Tuesday's evg 10. Will P reckoned they are a tip top race wheel which can still be used as an all rounder. So whilst I wasn't familiar with them, I trust Will and so agreed to buy.

For now, I think I'll keep 'em for TTing and use my Sciroccos as my day to day set.

Yee harrr
