Post ride

I sure did.

I don't like having to quit due to a flat, so I'm sorry to offend ST etiquette by not photographing an unrealistic race setup. The Bento box was surely weighed down by the two gels placed inside it - must have added at least four ounces. But I have no spacers and use an adjustable stem with negative tilt for a slick aero position. Aerodynamics trump weight, and it was a training exercise for me to begin with. As the sole judge of my own performance, I give myself a passing grade.

I hate you...and I want those Delta brakes.

What if the Hokey Pokey is what it is all about?

Really cool looking bike and carbon weave on the wheels. Looks a bit slack on the seat angle for my taste but it looks sharper than a Joe Jackson record cover.

Fleck's ancient rig. It's so old, that some think that it's new! :)

Hopefully going to be replaced this year with a Cervelo R3.

That R3-SL that good?

Either of the R3's are that good. It's a cliche, but you really have to ride these bikes to appreciate them. And when I say ride, I am talking 2+ hours. It's miraculous really that a bike that is steel I-Beam stiff, can also deliver extrordinary comfort after hours in the saddle, but somehow Cervelo has managed to achieve this in the R3 series. Riding them is believeing them.

Save your money and buy a new wet suit.

I can still remember one race where a guy kept passing me on this super
old beat up schwinn. Anytime I think about speed on a bike, I remember
this race and go, its the engine stupid.

Sounds like i should see if any LBS here has cervelo's, our shop in specific doesnt carry them. You make it sound like a dream ride on such a bike, I will check it out.

Oh and as for wetsuits, I may need one soon its just too bad we dont carry your brand here! When I do I''ll be sure to contact you

Goldenwest street and PCH(Huntington Beach)

I thought that looked way too familiar.. ;)

I'm thinking about bidding on this old school rusted beauty for sale on Ebay. Asking price is $5. What should I offer?
