Aww thanks! Hudson is a ham...

Yes, so DH bought the Roubaix last spring (2007 with Shimano 105), but after a few months was just feeling like he wanted a faster, racier bike. He got a good deal on the Scott online, but before going for it, he tried one out at the local shop and immediately had no doubt. His feeling was that although not as comfy as the Roubaix, it was a smooth ride (like you would expect form carbon), had a more agressive position, and just responded way quicker without being twitchy. Also, being lighter, it just generally goes faster. He just adores it.
