My future? Children absolutely do not factor in to my future! You nutcases can have as many as you like, but I'll sit this one out.

Also: clearly the whole 'fender bosses' thing on the Roger was an afterthought fabricated entirely within the Bianchi marketing department.

edit: Sure the actual bosses are in back by the dropouts and at the bottom of the fork legs, but that's apparently where it ends! There isn't any mounting point on the seattube/chainstay-bridge, nor a brake hole on the fork. And I also don't see how the fender stays are supposed to clear a disc brake caliper. Oh wells! I'm still happy with the thing, even with its slightly diminished capability as an uber-commuter.
