Finally going carbon!!!!!!
Finally going carbon. Just ordered a Felt F4 and now the bummer is I have to wait. I am not a patient person so this is going to be a rough week. Got 10 percent off, not a huge savings but still $300. I am really looking forward to the new Ultegra groupset and should be a great bike.

It won't be so bad, before you know it you will be picking up your bike and enjoying it. It took a week to get my Trek Domane 4.5 and it also took a week to get my wife's Trek Domane 4.3 when we ordered hers. The wait was not bad at all.

It's not going to be ridden, that's what the F75 is for. I figure I can stare at it and polish it on occasion. Just kidding, it's going to be a work horse.

That's a beautiful bike - kind of stealth look

Turns out I wont be going carbon till late February. The bike is back ordered and that is when it should come in. That is cool though, I have been hearing good things about it and the bike shop is going to upgrade the wheels for me for being a loyal customer. That and the 10 percent off its turning in to a really good deal other than the wait. As long as I get it before spring I will be happy. Plus I have my current bike to ride so no real hardship on my part.
