Wow, Nanci--I checked out that century online--looks like you Gainesville cyclists have a whole cycling weekend. It looks like fun and I'd love to come, but our local century is that very weekend--it'll be Prof. Sprout's first metric, and my first in about 3 years.

So cute! She looks itty-bitty compared to my 53cm ... what size is that frame?
And your celeste is prettier than my celeste ... I got this paint job with the fade (although mine is the steel version) and I think it's kind of goofy.

Are you kidding me? I love that paint job on yours! That fade is cool. Of course, I love my own paint job, too. The frame is a 44, and I didn't realize just how tiny she is until I took the photos. Teeny-weeny for sure, but that's what fits! Originally Posted by xeney

So jealous....
JuJu, I adore my "bleached celeste" Eros Donna, but the Veloce in celeste is just as gorgeous. And I love the Campy wheels! Too cool! Your bike is even smaller than mine. My riding friends call mine "the itty bitty green machine."
Happy riding. That's great that you snagged an '05 with the triple. My biggest reservation (other than fit) about the '06 Veloce was the compact crank. My LBS neglected to tell me that they could have possibly gotten there hands on an '05. Hmmmmmm.

Thanks everyone. And of course today it's raining, and rain and t-storms forecast throughout the day. But...this gives me a day to hunt down a computer for Prof Sprout.
