A Day in the Life

What I persevered today:

By Wesley A Miller, Esq.

Waking up at 5:30 AM to my dog stepping on my testicles

Gaining my senses to realize it was actually 6:00

Skipping coffee to catch the 6:30 bus

Sharing a seat with a man with obvious hygiene resource inequities

Shouting at the bus driver as he attempted to drive off with my Road Bike on the rack

Arriving at work. Period.

Finding my first client wasn’t until 8 AM, and no one bothered to call me.

Receiving none of the ice cream cake because I had a lunch meeting without food.

Comparing my plight with that of Milton from “Office Space”

Eating a mealy golden delicious apple instead

Having a client that was just a special shade of crazy

Inspecting my Scott CR1 to find my rear tire at 75 PSI

Freezing blisters on my hands because my CO2 trigger dethreaded

Admitting that as of this morning I weighed198 pounds naked as a jaybird

Seeing my ex-girlfriend cruise up beside me as I roll out of the office parking lot

But wait, there’s more!:

Pedaling up to find the barriers up on the Blue Ridge Parkway

Time-trialing the 1100 feet to the gap in 22:30; not great, not bad

Seeing only two other pedal-pushers the entire time

Noting that both are Biowheels Racing Teammates

Screaming down Elk Mountain Scenic Highway faster than I should have with a flat tire

Accomplishing this without careening off the side of the mountain

Logging another 29 beautiful, solitary miles

Living to tell about it. So I am

Grab your wool knickers!

Racing has it’s place, but so does pedaling around the countryside checking out the sites! This just looks like fun…..no helmets, no lycra, and no hammering!

Cervelo Cycles brings world-class design to BioWheels-Asheville

BioWheels is excited to feature Cervelo as our premier road bicycle vendor! They have been leading their class in the road & time trial markets based on lightweight, strong and aerodynamic design that is backed by the world’s #1 ranked road race team (Team CSC) and the winningest triathlon brand in Ironman hisory (over 30 wins).

Cervelo was founded in 1995 by two engineers who continue to own & manage the company today. Cervelo is a group of people who love cycling while having a commitment to engineering that is unmatched in the cycling industry. Quite simply, Cervelo is building the best bicycles on the planet. This is evident not only in their commitment to product testing and engineering but in the fact that Cervelo extends a lifetime warranty on every one of their frames!

If you’re looking for the ultimate road bike, you need to consider the Cervelo Soloist Carbon or the Cervelo R3. New for 2008 is the Cervelo RS. This bike is designed with the same performance of the R3 with a taller headtube for a more upright riding position. For value-oriented performance, you should see what Bicycling Magazine calls “The best $2000 complete road bike” - the Cervelo Soloist Team.

If you want to shave minutes off your time trial or bike split, then you should know that no other bike model is more tested or proven aerodynamically than the Cervelo P3 Carbon. Cervelo is by far the most-raced TT bike in the world and the benchmark by which all other manufacturers are rated.

BioWheels is the only shop in Western NC that Cervelo deems worthy of their reputation. The complete Cervelo line is represented in our Asheville, NC store. Come in to look at one for yourself!
