Hi Squeaky!
Oh, I see......you have the Serotta Fierte. Really, it's a beautiful set of wheels! Lock her up.
Enjoy!!
Peace & Love,

Hi Squeaky - take it from one novice to another. Be happy that you got the bike you wanted and to hell with what other people think. I too bought more of a bike than I need (I have a Giant OCR Limited) but I lovelovelove to ride and will grow into it. Also, its a bike I can improve on without having to purchase another bike to end up with the same result (Unless of couse, I keep crashing, then I might have to look into either titanium or maybe even take up sewing.......)

Thanks all! I'll be commuting home today on the new bike and I'm psyched to see what the time difference will be compared to my mtb. Knowing me, it won't be much

Beautiful bike, Squeaky. Congratulations! As I've said before, we all "deserve" whatever we can pay for !![]()

Oh my. That was just awful, Lisa!I love puns!
Squeaky - I know how you feel. I just spent a lot of money - on me! - to get my new road bike (Thanks for the compliment on the paint job!)... I am also a "newbie," also have been riding my MTB everywhere... and also feeling the guilty pleasure of riding a road bike that is mine, and Very Nice!
My theory is this - when purchasing a tool, choose the best you can afford. For some reason, I tend to feel less guilty about a big purchase if I call it a "tool" rather than a "toy."
Congratulations! Enjoy your bike!
You go girl!!! Enjoy your beautiful new bike!!!
