Hello everyone I'm new here and figured this was a good place for a firs post. I just got a new 2010 Fuji Roubaix ACR 3.0 for $800 after my Lemond Reno's right 105 shifter bit the dust. Only put a few hundred miles on the Fuji so far but I already love it. So far the only thing I've added are a set of Shimano clipless peddles but sorry no pics right now I'm posting from my Blackberry. By the way great site!

This pic is from the bikesdirect website, I will post the actual pic of my Motobecane Record after I get some of my own photos done. Looks similar except mine is white, and I just added SPD pedals and shoes. I think mine is 2-3 years old, with only 100 miles on it. I bought it from Craigslist for $200, so I think I got a pretty good deal. This is my first Road Bike, so I am excited to get into it.

Jamis Satellite:
$340. Included upgrades: The M28s, Carbon SP & handlebars, Stelle Italia SLR, 130mm ritchey stem and a box of goodies.
Until now, my $40 1981 Panasonic was my best bike. Water bottle cage and decent pedals are now on the Jamis and I'm in heaven.

Me? I only ask because I posted a MASH video over there recently. If so, unless you are retired I'm no hipster kid. That's alot to do to make fun, something I didn't even notice until you pointed it out.

2011 Giant TCR Advantage SL3
Just got the bike yesterday and went on it's maiden voyage this morning. Awesome feeling ride!
Changed the tires, and bar tape to add a little color. Was very monochromatic stock.
Thanks go to Mark and his crew at Westwood Bikes in Westwood, NJ for setting this up for me.

Nice TCR. Not sure the added flair of colored tires is really worth it: It seems that there is a reason tires are black. Anyways, nitpicking. Beautiful bike, enjoy the ride.
