Sweet Ride Mr. Beanz!
I am looking forward to the GMR ride report as well. I can't mention carbon around the house atm, I'm still trying to convince the wifey that $1600 isn't too much for a steel bike.
The picture of the SART is hilarious with the roller-blader drafter the group of cyclists. Looks to me like the roller-blader is just about ready to lay some smack-down on some cyclists.

Nice looking ride Mr. Beanz ! Be sure to post a video of you riding your new steed. I'll be riding indoors for awhile on a spin bike, just got done shoveling about 6 inches of snow and it's still coming down hard.

Maybe GMR next week. I need to test on the flats first. Finding out the hard way at 35 mph is a scary thought.
She did lay some smack down!

I can image the mess snow makes. If I were there, I'd more than likely wait till spring to ride a new bike.

I pull out my old Cannondale and ride it when the roads have been plowed wide enough. I did join a gym for the first time last week so I could try and not gain over the winter. By the way we finished off with 18 inches of snow, so I did get a nice workout shoveling.
