Wow, that is just beautiful. Looks quite rideable, too. I love the colors, both on the bike and on the wall. Are you some kind of artist or something? I'm guessing you are.

Thanks, you guys.

While I do tend to give a lot of thought to the aesthetics of things, I'd be the last person to call myself an artist. The paint on the walls was my mother's doing. When left to my own devices, I come up with color combinations like this. (Though I did design and help build the desk.)

Never had a chance to take any pics until this past weekend. Picked it up on CL back in November; my first road bike. Rode Saturday and came back on Sunday with the camera.



The spacers came with the bike and I'm still undecided on how much to chop off.

Nice! Looks similar componentry-wise to my Surly LHT. Jamis makes some good stuff.

(Nice Miata, too!)

Just got a new wheelset today! DT Swiss 1450 Mon Chasseral. Much smoother ride than the Ksyrium SL's I had, and weigh the EXACT same. 16.64 lbs. with Ksyriums, 16.64 with the DT Swiss.

Nice bike! I think the Pro SL SRAM is a good buy. I just don't have $5k to spare at the moment.
