Well after completing my craigslist build up this past weekend, I passed the 100 mile mark on it tonight. Well worth the wait, time spent searching for the frameset and wheels, and the effort to save up some funds to finish up the build.

09 Zipp 404 with Mich Pro3s
10 SRAM Force groupset with Red shifters and Red rear deraileur
3T Team bars, Syntace F119 stem, Thompson Elite seatpost, Spec Romin SL saddle

Your seat looks a little off kilter.....sloping down a little...
I ran into Charley Phogg
He blacked my eye and he kicked my dog
My dog he turned to me and he said
Let's head back to Tennessee, Jed

SRAM shifters bend out like that, they aren't on backwards.
Here is a photo of my red shifter to compare it to.
