congrats on the new bike ray! although I am a Trek rider, like you said - the Dolce just felt better and that's more important than the name on the down tube! May you and he/she/it have many miles together!

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"
Congrats! I just bought the '05 Dolce Comp myself. I love it so far and just wish I could get out and put more miles on it!!! I will, but I want to ride NOW.
By the way, my hubby says it looks like a dorm around here because I have her parked in my living room!!! She looks so pretty, and I don't want to send her off to the basement just yet. Wouldn't even think of sticking her in the garage!!!
Have fun with the new bike!!!

[Oh I'm not sticking my bike in the garage either. I keep mine in the house which totally irritates my hubby, but he'll get used to it!![]()
I don't even want to put it on the patio. I just love my bike...
I have a now "vintage" 02 or 03 Allez Dolce and I love it as a road bike. Not so good as a tri bike, but she's not mean't to be. She's a sexy little number, silver and white w/ tiger stripes.. I do love her even though I'm about to relegate her to the trainer. I have pictures of her somewhere, I'll have to add them to my online album..
Mine is also between the living room and dining room on the trainer. My husbands is also just on the other side of the wall. We keep them clean so our house looks like cyclists live here. What a sight we must look like when my girlfriend comes over a couple of times a week during this time of the year and the three of us are on trainers. 10 miles on the trainer goes so quickly this way.Originally Posted by ladyfish
