Bling Bling Makes The Wheels Spin!
As I mentioned in a previous post, I have a just purchased snazzy new pair of cycling shoes. They are The Sidi Ergo 2 - a new version of the Ergo 1. These are to replace my old trusty pair of Carnac Quartz. These new puppies are not yet released, and I have managed to get my hands (or feet, more to the point) on them about 2 months before they hit the stores here in Europe. How did I manage that? Well….
I went to a top bike store here in London (Condor Cycles) and tried on a pair of DMT Flash - they didn’t fit as well as I would have hoped, so I tried on the Sidi Ergo 1 - perfect! The problem was, the only colour they had in my size was crap! So I began to call around to find what I was after - no joy. I decided it would save me time if I was to call the UK distributor directly, for a suggestion of where to go. This guy told me that he had three pairs of the NEW, upgraded model, in size 42 - MY SIZE! These are models that
are being shown to bike stores pre-release. They have a FULL Carbon Sole instead of a few carbon sections in the current soles. Gimmee the white pair! So he got them sent to Condor Cycles the next day!
I’m heading out in the morning for my first ride in London - out to Richmond Park, around a few times, and home. Stay tuned for the report!
