On bike to work day I began a commitment to commute to work as often as possible. Unfortunately, my 35 pound hybrid ("The Beast") made it a bit of drudgery. So, I sold it on Craig's list and last night I bought a new bike, a Jamis Coda Comp flat bar road bike. Now I can't wait for next week so I can commute to work!
I've already replaced the pedals with my spd's and the saddle with my Terry Liberator. Next will be to add a rear rack.

About 25 pounds, or 10 pounds less than my ex-hybrid. It's a steel frame with carbon fork.

The 2nd pic, from the front, looks like it's alive. With shiny eyes.

That is pretty sweet lookin', Nicole! How's it ride? And what kind of tires have you got on it? Next to lube, tires are becoming my favorite bike toy, ahem, accessory
