Thanks tacomee, but it's not too heavy for me so I'll be keeping it. It's funny you mention the Randonee--I was seriously contemplating buying one with my dividend and 20% off coupon, but right after I decided it wasn't feasible this year (I'm a law student, so $ is tight), I saw this beast on CL and made the call.

I've been cleaning the bike and really dig it. The only items that shows any wear are the middle chainring and the brake pads. I'm just going to get it all tuned up and clean, true the wheels and throw new rubber on, replace the stem to lower and extend the bars a little, new bar tape, and new brake pads. Probably another hundred or so into the bike for all that and it'll be ready to tour.

One question, though. I'm trying to decide between replacing the quill stem with another quill stem or a threaded to threadless adapter. Any thoughts?
