After losing my 2005 Fuji Euro Pro carbon off the roof rack in late April this year (oh! the heartache!), my insurance company came through with enough replacement value dollars for me to get my dream bike (pinch me!!): An Eddy Merckx EMX3 carbon, full Campy Super Record. I've tried to think of names, but the only one I can really call it is just "Eddy." After getting over the fact that The Man was standing a mere 3 feet from me, I saw Eddy with a prototype EMX3 on an celebrity charity ride in 2006 and have lusted after it ever since. Hard to believe I actually own one now.

Very nice bike! Similar color combo to my Merckx Fuga. We're like fraternal twins. I haven't seen another bike I'd want as much as my dreamy bike, but I'd love to give yours a try. Ahhh, better not though. She might get jealous.

My bf's Merckx is also named Eddy (as is my cat).
