Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Sweet looking ride echo. I always have a mental hold up when I see a Shimano branded bike decked out in Sram. Don't get me wrong, i love the Sram, just hard to appreciate fully when the frame is labeled Shimano. Those bottle cages are dangerous looking. very Sharp.

Here's my '98 Rhygin Stainless, with new Ksyrium SL's and Hutchinson Tubeless. Feels like a new bike.

It's a great back drop and I don't know if you did it intentionally but brilliant lighting as well.

So this is Jure, the guy who built my post combo, well this is his bike he built. The Slovenian TT National Championships were yesterday, and he took it there to show off his work. 6023g with a full Force group, and heavy, bars, bottle cages, and pedals.

Downright impressive.

Good looking, but not hot (lots of spacers under the stem, big saddle bag in the picture).

Thanks....I bought a Roubaix as an alternative to my Cervelo P2C. Needed a bike that is more relaxed and comfortable for long rides with groups.

I plead guilty on the spacers - my aging inflexible body! The seat bag is a Specialized mini-wedgie, not sure i could go any smaller and get anything in it, maybe looks bigger in the picture https://www.specialized.com/us/en/ftr...gs/mini-wedgie . Thanks for the feedback guys!

Nope, that's a sick backdrop with how the lighting plays off the texture. Bike is Hot.
