Yeah, I thought 5 grand was pretty good for a custom Tephra SL, Deda Black magic forks, full Chorus, Deda Newton Bars, Thomson stem, Chorus carbon post, SLK saddle, Chorus/DT/Open Pro/Michie Pro Race tires. No pedals, but what the heck - I think it's a smokin' deal.

And it's only taken me 3 years to get down into that price bracket, too. I could go lower if some of the other OEs would actually sell to me. I swear, some of these people have an aversion to making money.

Boonen. The guy has to be on the juice, right? He wins everything except the big tours. And if he got Cancer or shot himself, he'd probably win those too!

Now, where's Dick Cheneys telephone number....
