The Felt is gone. It has a new home in Lincoln. KB has it, and I hope it serves him better than it did me in the last few months. It was a straight-up swap -- he gets the Felt frame, I get a Trek Equinox 9 TT frame. I've always wanted a TT bike. The idea of not having to rearrange your whole bike setup to do a TT-specific workout is a big, big plus. Just take it off the hook and ride. I'll build it up later this fall, probably.
But I'm without a race bike, of course. The Bianchi has all of the Felt bits on it currently, and probably will for a while. I have seven months until spring. I'm sure I'll get something else figured out.
Also new: the Bell Volt helmet. My Ionos has a big crack in it, right along the seam where the strap inserts toward the front. So instead of another Ionos, which I'll categorize as good enough, I went with the Volt.
The first Volt I tried on earlier this year didn't fit quite right, but this one is perfect. Way, way better than the Ionos. Older Bell models never fit right, but this one is dead-on. Too bad the blue doesn't really match Kaos blue.
And that's it. Time for work.

Kaos blue doesn't even match Kaos blue. Helmet will look great.
Trust me, this is way more noticeable than that little navy/more navy bit. On the bike, you can't tell the difference anyway.
But this helmet is considerably brighter.
