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

That same list is also linked in my signature line.
Terribly sorry I didn't read your signature line! But who does? Oh well, your loss of time typing...

Well, perhaps I should post my new blue bike before the mods close this and all the other "Show me" threads.

My 2013 Trek Domane 4.0c I bought last month on clearance




I will order a Brooks B17 standard in Royal Blue, and get my shoes and put the Speedplay Zeros on, also getting a Niterider 700, and tail light.

Nice lookin' bike. Have you ridden a B17 before? I'd have to say don't get it for the looks, because it'll look rather weird on that ride.

The stock saddle was a hatchet
I have my Spec Riva on it now but need to adjust it better
My spine and hips are jacked up so the brooks molding ability should work better.

Here are a couple of shots of my 1985 Nishiki Team Issue, which I've named "Coyote Blue."
