New Bike!!

[xfdriver]

I am very excited to have picked up my new bike this week. It is a Colnago CLD and although I have only been on a short ride so far, I love it. I ordered it with Shimano 105 group with the intention to change it out to Campagnolo Athena. We put the 105 set on my daughter's Bianchi and I bought the Athena group and had the LBS install it. I think the LBS was as excited as I was with the bike.
Here are a couple of quick pics I took this morning.

She's a beaut! Love the Campagnolo wheelset. And I see you're in Florida, so you'll be able to start enjoying her right away... have fun!!

Thanks! Living in Florida does have definite advantages for year round riding opportunities.
I figured I might as well go all Italian so switched out the Shimano wheels for Campagnolos. I don,t race so did not need an expensive wheel set and feel the Scirocco was a nice mid price whee,l and I like the way they look. Now the only thing that really bugs me is the way my Garmin Edge 500 looks on the bike. It is a Team Garmin orange and blue color and looks very out of place. Can't justify a new one just because of color....but I'll think of something.
