I thought that looked like Plano (my fav), but I know in the past you have posted about the RBM rides, so I wasn't sure.

Gorgeous! Both you and the bike! All the hammer heads are going to crash when you go zipping by (Men are soooo visual![]()
what a GREAT Christmas present!
It's about the journey and being in the moment, not about the destination

When I was looking at buying a road bike, I was going to RBM. The person that I started talking to, I was not the most comfortable with. I knew what I wanted, then talking to others, they did not seem interested in me because I only wanted to spend a couple of thousand (not $5000+). I called PCF and they had the bike I wanted in the size that I needed (RBM did not), so I went there. I have not done major cycling shopping at the other store since. I feel like family at PCF. Are you going to do the Happy New Rear on New Years?
That's good that PCF worked out for you. I want to buy my next road bike from there... but I am looking at Giants... and they don't sell that brand. I'm loyal, but I go where the item I want to purchase is.
I do think that RBM is still a solid shop with a huge selection, but they have gotten way too big I think. Although, I am typically always assisted when I go in there.
I won't be doing the New Years ride... as I'm sure I'll be hung over.![]()

What a gorgeous bike!!!! Can't believe I missed this thread! I think Cervelos are some of the most beautiful tri bikes. I always pause to admire when I walk past one while setting up in transition. Congratulations! (and I'm with bluetree...must not covet...)
Run like a dachshund! Ride like a superhero! Swim like a three-legged cat!

Ooh, sweet ride KSH!! I'm drooling. Have fun with her!
OK, for some odd reason I thought you live in Australia.... yea, I'm nuts.
I like RBM... don't get me wrong... but they could NEVER fix the gearing issue with my Trek 1000... that I purchased there. I took it back a few times, and then I finally had to give up on getting into the big ring for many months.
Dustin (who has since left.... and I am so UPSET!) was FINALLY able to fix my bike... and I have done my best to get PCF my business ever since.
