I picked up my Christmas present tonight. It’s an 08 Specialized Tarmac Expert Ultegra. I love it. I hope to get some better pics outside when it's light. Time to go remove some excess stickers and reflectors. :)

58 (XL). I've mostly been testing 60's, but the 58 in the Specialized seemed to fit better.

'Tween me and thee, I think you'll love that bike :D I have to admit though to being strongly biased in favor of Specialized. :D

That is indeed a sweeet looking ride. I'm sure the two of you will spend many great hours together.
Oh by the way, I think they forgot to install the peddles:)

Definitely nice, seems one of these days I will give one of them a try. Since I been riding it has always been Mountain Bikes, I always wondered how it would be to ride a road bike. I ride a 21 inch Giant Rincon now. Rides well enough but it is heavy. I enjoy it nonetheless. You expect to take that on tours also or just round the town and rides?

Mostly around town, but I have signed up for the 2008 Tour de Cure already, which is one fo the reason I was anxious to get it quick. That is in March around here, and I want to do the century ride.
I'm also planning in the MS 150 this year as well.

I know that Tarmac is gong to be a fast ride, but you might have a little difficulty going back 2 years in time. ;)

DOH! Fixed. Now you have to admit. That certainly made you smile though.
