I have acquired her...

The Schwinn Premis I been yaking about is now sitting in my living room!

Swapped some pedals and took her out... holy crap is she fast compared to my Trek 850xl...

almost scary fast... glad I bought a Giro helmet for her...

I'll post up some pics in a little bit...

Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.
