Bikes: It's complicated.

I survived Eroica. But who cares about that. You want to see some pix of USAZorro's Competition!

As you may recall, there may or may not have been an issue with a possible crack in the seat tube. I checked inside and out, and don't think it's really a crack, but better to be safe than sorry.

Oh, and the badge cleaned up nicely.
