    My "new" bike

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    I have had my Trek Madone 5.2 for a month but I finally got around to taking a picture of her. I love my new bike! It's light, fast, smooth and when I ride it, I don't want to stop.

    Love the song! Thanks! I ride to work on a daily basis and the first day I rode the Madone, I joked that I would have made a fortune if I charged everyone who came by to look at it, touch it, pick it up, etc.

    It's a beauty! I bet it's fantastic to ride. Thanks for sharing the pics (even if they do make me a wee bit envious. )

    There's a huge difference between my Madone and my Trek 2300. I feel as if I am working so hard on the 2300. Riding on the Madone sometimes feels effortless.

    I have a 2200 and now you are making me think I need a Madone...

    I test rode the 5.1 a few weeks ago. My boss' wife has the 5.1 and she let me take it for a long ride. As soon as I finished my ride, I went directly to my LBS and ordered my bike. Enjoy your Madone!

    I have a Trek 2000 and the guy at the LBS thinks I'd be more comfortable on a WSD frame, and given the distances I ride he suggests I upgrade to carbon. So I'm obsessing about getting a WSD Madone.

    And now this thread is pushing me closer to making the move...

    I just got mine 2nd hand in the fall, so maybe next year for me. I'm so broke right now!
