Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Is this bad?

Well I've already picked out mynext roadie, its going to be a home build project though. Basing it off of the Specialized Tranistion frameset (I love my multisport frames looks so I figured I'd stick with it)



Likely going to have campy on it
Not sure of wheels
Going to go with another black and white colour set up, all the way around.

The reason I ask, is I just bought my new bike...

PS Has anyone had anyone buy them a bike for their birthday or christmas? My mom offered to buy me a specialzied langster for christmas, and I dunno how to explain to her I would need to go with her....

Your mother will never understand. Tell her what you want, then call ahead and alert the sales people. Be prepared to return it.
