Waytoomanybikes, which BC is your location?

OFG, welcome to the alliance! You have seen the light, may the force be with you.

I have been riding a vintage steel bike with 10 speed campy since before I put together my first super record bike. I was recently lucky enough to score a 10 speed campy bike with a columbus Nemo part tig part lugged frame from about 2001/2002. It's smaller than my traditional sizing, it's lighter, it climbs better and accelerates faster. You can't argue with the performance enhancements modern technology allows. Sure you don't need it, bit it sure is fun isn't it! And anything that makes riding more fun is a good thing. I haven't got a carbon bike yet, I know they crack but many come with a lifetime warrenty. When the new 2009 C-dale liquigas super sixs with campy super record 22 speed arrives in the shop I know I am going to be wishing I had one to ride.
