Dewey,
    Lowered the seatpost, put on 700x25 tires (normally I use 700x23),
installed a Softride Stem (the creators should be Knighted) and I am
really conscious of how I ride, mostly being more relaxed in the
shoulders.  I also moved my seat forward and oddly enough I like it
more.  I am also getting a pair of aerobars next week.  The next thing
I plan on is a suspension seatpost by CODA.  Think I've done enough?
