Got my roadbike today!



Would post more, but I'm going to go out for a let's-see-how-much-pain-my-butt-can-endure ride... :D

Wow; that bites...how'd you trash it (other than thinking you were Superman and trying to tackle a 50-foot vertical drop)?

Owowowowowow...I think I may have found the next best thing to a Brook's saddle...oy. The bike is fun as hell, but my rear really hurts... :D

I'm going to be shooting stock photos this weekend for a website; I'll shoot some then of the bike...besides, I need a decent background in X...

Just pedaling too hard I guess!:) I tore up the internals in the rear hub assembly today. Had to hike about 3 miles out of the woods. Not my best day...

Too bad about the bike, Dirt, I guess that's why it's nice to have a light bike, in case you have to pick it up and carry, or push it!

Hope you get it back on the trails soon, without too much hassle.

BTW, thanks for the link! Nice!
