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

R1000

Do you have this bike and do you like it? I found one that I want to get, but I want to know what you guys think about it.

You're talking about the Cannondale R1000, right?

Just got a brand new 2005 R1000 delivered a few days ago. Fantastic bike. Exceptionally stiff, light, and FAST compared to my mid-90's R600.

Keep in mind that the ONLY difference between bikes in the R series (R5000, R1000, R900, R800, R700, etc.) is the components. The frame is the same across the board. So, ultimately, when you're trying to decide between two R series bikes, you're basically picking which components you want.
