So, there I am, casually browsing around ebay, and the next thing I know I'm the proud owner of a Bianchi Pinella frame, the last of their now-discontinued made-in-Italy steel models. With the money I "saved," I guess I'll have to build it up with a nice mid-range Campy group.

It's like going into a furniture store looking for a set of beer glasses and coming out with a dining room set--but a lot more fun.
