Getting adjusted to campy is easier, because the shifter moves in the direction of the chain, so that's not too hard. It takes a couple of shifts to remember how shimano works because I reach for the thumb tab first to push in the direction of the chain, but that's all it is. Just one or two shifts after which I'm used to the system again.
To the OP: Sick bike! I love it. Ride the heck out of it!
The training ride right before a race will probably be on the race bike for that reason though, unless it's gross out in which case I'll use the backup. I'll race the backup bike if it's raining just because it's not worth the risk to crash my good bike when the probability of someone sliding out in front of me is higher.

I am going to be changing out the saddle. I really like my specialized toupe. Other then that, I still have the free hub body for the PT on my Zipps(i bought it from a campy user, so i changed it out to use on shimano). SO I will be rockin some 404s on there.....Actually, I just remembered the the front wheel has a Record hub, works out well.
