Thanks! Hee hee...I'm not so sure I'll be the talk of the town though. A lot of people on the roads here do not appreciate cyclists or their lovely machines in the slightest. I, however, will feel GREAT doing my part to cut pollution. I'll save $ and get stress-relief/exercise all at the same time. Ya just can't beat that!

What's neat is that I went wanting to look at the new (2009) 7.6 because I thought the white was prettier. (me and my silly color habits - that's how I got my current road bike...I fell in love with the baby blue color - LOL!) This bike is the 2008 7.5.. not a WHOLE lot different..just less some more expensive components and carbon pieces.. Not necessary really. The 7.5 has my beloved baby blue in accent colors! That clinched it. After I thought about it more, the black will not show chain slap like on my other bikes either. ALSO...best part... I am getting a discount since it's last year's model! Win win win!
