My latest addition to the stable. Built it up last year and just now having some great time with it. Need to get fitted and get a more comfortable seat.

Where was the picture taken?

Bike ≠ Car ≠ Ped.
My guess is Moffett, too.
Some years back, my uncle went to the airshow there, and it was being broadcast locally. The TV crew had a "man on the street"-type guy walking around and talking to the spectators, and he happened to talk to my uncle on the air at one point.
TV guy: "What's your name and where are you from, sir?"
Uncle: "Dave, from San Jose."
TV guy: "What brings you out here to Moffett Airfield?"
Uncle: "I'm here to watch some airplanes."
... duh...

I wonder if those blimp hangars are big enough to fit a velodrome track?

Well I haven't seen one of these posted yet, and for some stupid reason the forums decided you shouldn't be able to search a two character string like BH or G5. But anyway here is my fast ride:

I didn't want my first post to be in this thread, so I'll make it my second...
This is my first true road bike (bought it used). I had a Trek 7.3FX previously.
2001 Lemond Tourmalet - Pretty much stock except for the 105 FD, Mity8 (borrowed from the Trek), Silver Fizik Aliante, and of course the Soma Road Flare bar end tail lights.
Saddle is about an inch higher and stem is about a half an inch lower than when this pic was taken.

Nice... I definitely want to do the swap from 1" threaded to 1 1/8" threadless setup eventually so I can do a carbon fork and a pick my stem height/angle.

I realize I'll take some flak for my bike but I don't give a crap I love it and even thou it's been posted before I have made some updates so reposting it again. Some background I choose something to take me back to my childhood as I feel like such a kid when I'm on it. Therefore I choose a colour combination that reminded me of my childhood favorite, Hot Wheels, I love it and gives me tons of happyness from just looking at it to the comments I recieve while out riding it which have always been wow!
