I have awesome balancing skills.
Cane Creek Speed Bars. Mass start legal aero bars. They clip on to the drop bars next to the stem. You should be able to see them better in this shot.

I'm probably on somebody's wheel, we're heading into a turn.
I guess it's habit but should you not be ready to slow at any moment in a crit?? (when on a wheel)
I try to be ready anyway..

Tour of Lawrence, KU Circuit Race. 4 mile laps with 400 ft climbing per lap. 100+ degrees with the sun beating down. Saw a new max hr of 206 after the sprint. I jumped into a fountain immediately after this race. These are two pics of the final climb before the sprint.
This one gives a good idea of the elevation change:

Baker City Cycling Classic, stage 4 finish on Dooley Mtn. Suffering because I bonked so badly at the bottom and had 7 miles of climbing to go. 2 man break for 30 miles into the climb must have hurt me a little. Could barely make it up, just wanted to close my eyes.

Chasing a break just before I was about to (try to) bridge: https://wheelsinfocus.smugmug.com/Oth...7rv6V&lb=1&s=A
