Finally Back from Iraq

I am very pleased to announce that I am back from Iraq now.  I could write several megabytes worth of text about how happy I am to be back.....but no one wants to read that. 

  To keep this bike-related - in the few days I've been back I have made a few tweaks to my bike.  First, I installed the Kent Eriksen seatpost that my wife bought for me.  It's a titanium post and has some noticable flex to it...the good kind of flex.  The post will take some of the edge off riding a hardtail bike.  The other change I made was to replace the stem and handlebar.  I picked up a Salsa Moto Ace with a 17-degree backsweep.  I haven't had a chance to do a real ride on it yet so I can't comment on how these two changes have improved the bike.  I'll report my observations once I've had a chance to put some miles on it.
