Rochester Flyers is NOT Rochester Minnesota's bicycle messenger service. Rochester Flyers is NOT a cycling club or race team. Rochester Flyers is NOT a bike shop or a company. Rochester Flyers is just me, going on rides, attempting to return to racing, doing alleycats and spewing my opinion online.

Gunnar Soroos a lifelong cyclist born on the tropical island of Oahu, racing in Minnesota. His passion of cycling is combined with his faith in God to keep him focused on the real mission - the golden rule, love others as you would want to be loved. Peace.
Rochester Flyers is Rochester Minnesota's best cycling club and race team. Rochester Flyers bicycle club. Rochester Flyers bike club.
Gunnar T. Soroos is Rochester Minnesota's best cyclist and bike racer. Gunnar T. Soroos Bicycle Racer. Gunnar T. Soroos ride a fixedwheel bike sometimes.

I warned you

The wordpress site is up. Visit it here: http://wp.rochesterflyers.com/

Be ready for changes though. The theme or template may change until I find one I like or make one on my own. Most of the articles from here have been transferred, except for images and links. I don't have categories set up how I like it yet. You can still visit this page, but I don't think I'll post to it.

Mahalo.

Cha-cha-cha-changes...

This is a post feed from RochesterFlyers.com

So Rochester Flyers has had the same look, and the same CMS for a couple years now. And I prolly wouldn't consider changing it, except the CMS is giving me fits lately. Posting is a pain.

So I'm thinking I'll switch to wordpress. This could take some time as I want to design it for my needs, and I'll have to move all the archived articles over too. In other words don't expect anything ready next week. I'm only now thinking about it. but till then posts will not be as frequent.

Watch this. And then share it.

I've been wanting to buy one of these cameras for a couple of years now. And this is a good use for it.

Berry McGee Livestrong Trek Madone

This is a post feed from RochesterFlyers.com

You have to check this out. Artist Berry McGee takes a Trek Madone and dresses it like an urban flat bar bike. Like a well used steel flat bar urban bike. Complete with rust and everything. You have to check it out. Follow this link - http://www.supertouchart.com/2009/03/08/lacycle-killerslance-armstrongs-new-barry-mcgee-trek-madone/

Livestrong Berry McGee

To me there's something romantic about a bicycle that is well used, showing signs of age and battle scarred, but still plenty willing and able to go forth and race when called upon. I think this bike captures that look. Great job!

Another magical fairy visit

Another magical fairy visited yesterday. And her gifts this time were a new pair of Sidi cycling shoes.

And in that box were these fancy shoes.

Sidi cycling shoes

Wow! Fancy, huh? Yeah, supercool!

Here they are next to my old dominators.

Old Sidi next to my new Sidi's

At the time I got them (about 14 yrs ago) the Dominators were the top MTB model from Sidi. Here's what's really cool, these Bullet2's have a better (read stiffer) sole, even though they are a couple rungs down for the top. And the closure system, that while not a cool buckle and reverse strap, is much more simple to use, especially on the fixed gear bike.

As a bonus, these new shoes aren't falling apart.

Cracked heelcups No sole on this shoe.

Another bonus, they fit well right out of the box. Seriously, my old ones took about 9 years to break in enough to where they were comfortable. And then they began to fall apart.

Gunnar wearing his new Sidis

Yeah, I've started shaving my legs for the season already. Why? Well that's a story for another post.

Who's this guy with the fancy new shoes.

In celebration, I took them out on a ride. 2 1/2 hours of happy feet. All I can say is awesome! Thanks to the Soroos family racing fund for sponsoring this investment.
