My new bike-Look....
KG-381. I just picked it up from its previous owner. I was pretty excited about it on my way to check it out, but once I laid my eye's on it I was jumping up and down like a little kid at the carnival. Its looks way better in person then the pics. I picked up some Mavic SL's yesterday, so all I need is a groupo tires and a seat.
Ill post some pics when I get home. Oh yes, and true Look tradition, its very light.

Oh, and I am cleared to start riding. Only 20 minutes first ride, then 40 minutes on wed, by friday I can be up to an hour.
Nothing too exciting, just flat mellow pedaling.
