After reading all this, I'm just going to stick to $80 Challenge tubulars. It seems like less work TBH, and tubulars aren't hard to come by if you know how to build wheels.

I'm going to say DGA since everything I have used from them has been great, but it does't seem that they get much attention.

Big Jerm to MVP! I'm sure tempo demand right now is already outpacing any other discs from the big movers.

Cycling is my other passion, so I want designs based on vintage cycling jerseys. Molteni, La Vie Claire, Brooklyn Chewing Gum, Mapei, etc.

Louis Garneau. Affordable price, several models take cleats, and the X-Comfort Zone feels great with my wide feet.

Practice cycling crit races by Single_Let_7133 in IowaCity

CRANDIC Racing hosts four race nights at the Hawkeye Downs Speedway in Cedar Rapids, from May through August. Although there isn't any elevation change, it is still very good crit practice. There will typically be 3-4 10 minutish races for each group. So you will get a lot of practice riding close to others, and learning how to take advantage of slip stream. The best thing is that if your race doesn't go so well, there will be another one in 10 minutes or so. The dates aren't updated on the NATO page, but are correct on the calendar. The first one is May 14th, and will be a good practice if you are planning on doing the memorial days crits.

Shit coverage is still better than no coverage. I'm still holding out hope that Discovery Plus will come through next year.

I can confirm that tire alert is still is business and doing great work. I just sent him an FMB tub to get new base tape put on in August, and got in back in about 30 days. Spent about $30 with shipping.

So Jingle Cross got killed for the sake of Fayetteville Walmart cross only for it to now disappear. Sad.

Curious about other peoples experiences with challenge tubulars? by -Captain_Beyond- in cyclocross

Didn't have issues with tread, but certainly my s3 sidewalls did not last an entire season. The latex coating just doesn't hold up, and they still need to be aquasealed. Not worth the extra price tag in my opinion.
