Never thought I'd be posting in this thread, but I joined the cult on Sunday. I recently sold my Trek Equinox TT bike and have been shopping hard for a new road bike for the last couple months. Caads weren't even on my radar as they were a little out of my price range, but I stopped in a local shop that I didn't even know sold Cannondales ('12 was their first year carrying them) and they had one 2012 left and it was my size (56) in team paint. Never dreamed of owning one of these but the thing fit like a glove and at $999 +tax I couldn't pass it up.
