Zapatos Nuevos Tour, for the gringos, Nu Chuus 😄 (2 Local Legends)

 Finally broke down getting new shoes after 14 years.  Did the eyeball trick last night with new cleats getting it right the first time.  Planned to make adjustments along the way but only a couple of checks to make sure the screws wouldn't vibrate out.  Am I good or what? 😄 Couple friendly people I saw on the bike.👀

Solo 25 miles. I don't usually pay attention to local legends but now I have 2. I think it's cool because most riders don't go all the way up skipping the uphill section.  But I've had the Pico to Azusa cyn for a couple of weeks.  15 or so miles segment but now I see I have Pico to the top and back. A 33 mile segment.  I'm good with that. 😄










Just like my shoes,  I try to get everything out of my stuff.  Not cheap,  just want to get what I pay for. Like the speed stick I use to lube my chamois/pad. I have like 3 new ones but still I take that little piece out and use it till the end before using the new one. Same with toothpaste and whatever else I have ha ha ha.
