Looks pretty sunny to me. Man do you have some alternative hand positions on your bike!

Ya know, taking the 25 degree stock Crowbar off of it and having to put the straight bar on so the aerobars would fit; I kinda miss the 25 degree rise believe it or not, for regular riding I think.

I'm thinking I llke the Aerobars for the trainers.

Ya know, when I started thinking I was going to spend some money on a bike I thought I wanted a road bike. An Allez. Went down to the LBS and road and Allez. I hated it. Felt like my guts were getting squished all together. Then I rode the FX. Completely different. I liked it and I still do. Now put the Aerobars on the FX = position on the Allez I hated.

But....I ride those aerobars on the trainer whether I like them or not. Gut squishing a big plus !

Find an electrical shock sytem. When your knees hit the gut, a little shock. Could be a bit of motivation to lose some tummy!:D

If you find one. let me know. I'll borrow it when you're done!

Yeah, I told you you'd either love or hate the Allez. It's a screamer though if you do love it......

That's exactly why I told you to take one for afew miles worth of ride. :D
