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

What road bike do you have?

Very nice bike Ron. HAPPY CHANUKKAH 5772 to you and your Family. The lighting of last day of Chanukkah on Rosh Chodesh is just more Blessings from Jehova.

Thanks! FWIW the frame has exceeded my expectations. I bought it with the intention to upgrade it eventually but there's no need, it's stiff and handles well. If I get tangled up in a crash at a race I won't have much to worry about since they are readily and cheaply available

I've owned Treks and I've owned Bianchis. Great bikes all. But Celeste on a Trek is JUST WRONG.

Here are mine. Haven't posted them in a while, and some minor things have changed. Pictures taken today. Sorry, but they are not clean, which is something I have not done in at least a month. Need to replace the white tape on both too.

1988 Guerciotti


2007 Look 595 Ultra


2010 TIME RXR

I just need to swap out those bottle holders, and maybe change the bar tape to white.
