UBI DT Swiss advanced wheel building day 2

Today was the second and final day of the advanced wheel building class. Basically we laced our wheels and built the up true and tensioned. About an hour later I put both my wheels in the stand and had them within 0.05 mm's, good enough for me.

Later today we will be taking a written test to finish the certification process. Other than that there isn't too much to report. Tomorrow we start the advanced suspension course and wrap things up on Friday.
Pictured below is a photo I took on my hike today on the Lithia Park trail following Ashland Creek.
