How pretty !!!
Happy early birthday to you, indeed. :cool:
Nice! It's so clean. :p
V.
Purdy!
Happy Birthday to you!!!
Yeah, until I actually ride it. I still have to put all the stuff on it--cages, pump, saddle bag. Maybe I'll ride Sunday...it might get over my minimum riding temperature, which means that the snow will suck and I might as well be riding.Quote:

Rolf Elans. Love that 1250 g per wheelset! I actually already had the wheels, which helped me "stay within budget" while building the rest of the bike. :rolleyes:Quote:

I mean, my old bike got me through some pretty tough rides and I survived, and it's still working just fine and the new wheels last year really helped with performance...but did she really need to be replaced? Why did I really want a new bike? The only real bonafide excuse I could come up with was that my old bike really hurt me after about 120 miles. (But then I suspect I'd probably hurt on ANY bike after 120 miles, and I'm not sure I'll ride anything longer than a 200 k anymore, but that's beside the point. :p )
I'm still not sure I really needed this bike. But I have it now, so I guess I'll just have to get over this guilty feeling. *sigh* I blame it all on Catholic school (which I got kicked out of).
Congratulations! Yes, on the getting kicked out of Catholic school! ;) And on deciding the celebrate your wonderful self with the purchase of a fabulous new ride that you really wanted. :pQuote:

I just can't get over how much I love those Salsa bars. I have a feeling that if I'd had those on my old bike, some of my troubles would have been alleviated.
Sweet Bike! :cool: Happy Birthday!! :)
The bars look great. What Salsa bars are they??Quote:
