    You didn't waste any time, did you ?
    I can see the difference in the frame, much longer top tube - that's got to feel better.
    How do the drop bars feel?

    Jill is the bomb! I'm so glad you ended up with a great bike at a great price from a great shop!

    She so is! It's amazing how she can look at you on a bike on the trainer and know immediately what's wrong. She knows when one leg is shorter than the other and when you need a longer stem, etc. She so rocks!

    LOL Guilty! The Sunday after I met with you would be the only time for the next three weekends that I'd be able to make it out to Proteus other than taking time off from work. I had a wad of cash in my pocket that wanted to go towards a new bike. And so it did! You helped make it possible!

    Yes, a longer top tube and she even switched out a longer stem for me. The drop bars feel good. I have to get use to the shifting and my back and shoulders need to get use to this new position. I know I needed to get use to it so I wanted to start sooner rather than later.
