Any other cyclists here?
I'm just in the process of cleaning my baby up. I picked her up this past fall. I can't afford to put any carbon fiber on my X or P-Car since I put so much into this thing (you could buy a small car for the same price). For those who care, it's got '04 Dura-Ace all the way around, including the new 10 speed cassette. I've got Speedplay pedals (have platforms clipped in for the pic so I can ride it around the neighborhood). It weighs a bit under 14 lbs, which for a 60 is pretty friggin' light. It's like you're riding air. Anyone else around here have a nice bike they want to share pics of?

I just looked at the cassette behind my nav screen and it appears to have only 3 speeds - Play, Fast Forward and Rewind.

I know a good bike, when I see one.


Hehehe my budget only allowed me to get a Norco Kokanee (not a racing bike). Oh well, you gotta achieve the perfect balance between spending on the X, spending on our hobbies, and spending on your woman (if you have one; I don't).

What is the word on the BMW bike that I have seen in the BMW accesories catalog- I like it's looks(don't get on me you hard-core bikers) I am just looking for something to play around with, not win races or impress the other bike nuts- any thoughts?

I've got the spring fever going on now too. Need to swap out the rear suspension with one that has a lockout for these damm bumpity bump city streets. Maybe this year will be the year I step up to clipless. How bad is the learning curve fellas ?
