Low-hanging fruit

I confess, I'd been looking at other bikes. Looking for Ridley Damocleses and Look 585s on clearance, casting curious gazes at Madone 5s and Tarmac Pros, and even took a Wilier Izoard out for a test ride. I liked that one a lot, but not $3800 worth.

Then I came across a low-mileage Giant TCR C0 on ebay. The fit caught my eye, M/L with 175mm cranks--hey, that's me. So for the hell of it I threw in a bid, went to work, and didn't think much about it until after supper. Uh-huh, it's mine.

So it's time to make some room in the garage. Anyone interested in a '79 Gios or a Felt F5C?
