New frame set. Finally fully built. Cervelo RS Giro D'Italia Edition. Took this photo right before a proper 60 mile break in ride. Absolutely love it. Now it just needs some deeper wheels

I almost went with that one. Just a touch too aggressive for me (geometry and handling), so I went with the Altamira. I have to say; those that want something that handles like an F1 racer, GO FOR IT!

Give em a moment. They are clearly excited. Lol
Nrow-How do you like the jump from homemade roadie to real roadie? It is fun watching people move up the ladder, especially when they take VERY similar steps you did.
Keep up the riding nrow and I am sure in a year from now you will look at your bike and then remember this first month when you first got it and realized how far this bike has helped you to come. Enjoy the more beautiful weather.

OMG, what a difference going from an old steel Schwinn to the Specialized... it's so much lighter, shifts so much smoother, and the brifters (even being the less-preferred Sora's) are lovely compared to what I was using! I love it!

Thanks all, I almost doubted the color scheme for a second there... (as for the celeste frame it's a whole lot more expensive!

ya know, i figured i would need to change it but it actually suits me just fine. i'm also surprised. i'm sure i could find a better one somewhere but for $150 i cant say it would be worth it.
