I really think (hope) that my bad habit of slamming back onto the seat after out of the saddle efforts had a lot do with the break. Needless to say, I've stopped doing it.

I rode the Cervelo tonight for the first time in 3 or 4 months, and I forgot how good and smooth it was.
I've been beating around on my Dedacciai 7003 Kennedy for a couple of weeks, and wasn't realizing how much it was beating me up -- even on Beach Road! The alu Kennedy will definitely become my "wet day only" bike.

I've stiffened up the Cervelo a little by putting the 1" Roselli fork (with the alu steerer) on it. There's no doubt it has more BB flex than my alu frames, but I like to call it "whip" -- and it's worth it, anyway, for the smoothness.
