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

I love this one, which is right down the road from my house. I can't even go back until they sell it.

I have no idea why I like this so much, it's just one of those things I guess. I just want it as a 4th bike, just to have. It's all 105, with DA downtube shifters for $500 or with Tiagra STI for $600.

If it's not celeste, it's not a Bianchi.

Makes me curious about what you're riding now that makes a Xenon-equipped low-end Bianchi so appealing...

Maybe he just likes Bianchi, eh? God knows I'd love to have a late 80's Bianchi Brava again.

I like the shade of red of that bike. Didn't notice that the components were low-end...
