Your avatar looks remarkably similar to this. ^

Hmm, you might be on to something..

That's because I'm bertocq all over the interwebz, but I feel the point... so new avatar with polished handlebar.

[Old one here just to contextualize]

I actually prefer face pics for avatars, aids in pre-judging et cetera.

In which case, we await your new avatar with interest....

That would indicate a level of sincerity and honesty that I'm not capable of.

So much younger than I pictured, is that your grand-père?

Welcome aboard... quick question are you riding fixed or single speed? If fixie how are you finding using SPD-SL? Is it ok or does it a while to get used to it? I'm still riding single speed on mine because I'm afraid that it's going to be too difficult with SPD-SL to go fixie...

as u can see i have no brakes so it's fixed
spd sl is good for training
they make pedaling more effective and stimulate to train trackstand sometimes because they lil bit harder to catch ^__^
and they are not good for short rides or couriering if you walk much, in this way i'd prefer spd.
i had no problems from the first time i tried them after spd, u just need to set them right.

btw i change pedals sometimes cause my Sidi are reconstructable from spd to spdsl

Rainbow bibs? Are you a world champion or something?

Opsie, I did miss that... I love my SPD-SL too that's why I use them despite the relatively short commute to work (5 miles per leg) but I was indeed afraid about the "harder to catch" part which is the only reason I've been reluctant to switch to fixed from single speed. Shall I give it a try? Maybe in a parking area first :)
