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

Perhaps the budget thread would be more appropriate, the build totals less than $800.00.
I thought it was odd at first, but now, realizing it is a woman's bike, all of a sudden it's really hot - like Cat Woman!

I think the bars are about right. It's the hoods/levers that are mounted way too high.

But, overall, proof that not all Colnagos are hot. Sorry, but, Not.

Not sure how you can determine a persons wealth from the 10 square feet of garage door....

living and riding in a fairly affluent area, I can tell you my garage door which is on a median income home, looks exactly the same up close as the ones on some of the $5M+ houses a couple miles away.

How does Tuesday at 10:45 work for you? I checked with Snow White and she says she'll be free to drive you.

Maybe you should re-read my post, as I did make the point that a wealthy person who spends money on flashy things (like million dollar cars) would have finer finishes on their home than the standard lower to middle class white garage doors.

My bigger point was that it's easy to lie your way to being Mr man on the internet.

This, or I second the BS call... that EVO is a nice ride, but if you could have any bike regardless of cost, would it be an EVO with Ultegra..?...
