it’s a 2015 specialized awol x poler.

one of one hundred around the globe. it’s assembled. it’s beautiful and rides steady. like it could go across the country in only a matter of days. with me. i love my new bike. the photo of it shows the bike a block away from the shop after i picked it up. the front rack and panniers were included with it. those 700x47s make for a comfy ride and they look pretty good too. i’ll change out the tires after the weekend, going over some trails(maybe?). also, i don’t want to put too many miles on the touring tires before i go.

tonight is the j.p.morgan chase challenge. i feel like i should have trained, but at the same time this could be my training for the soldier field 10 mile on saturday.
