My 2011 Cannondale Super Six 4
Got this back in October of 2010. It has over 1500 miles on it and I love it. It handles everything I throw at it. I love this bike!

I pedal in my sleep...
Finished upgrading to Rival. First time I've done anything to that extent. Maybe a few things I could clean up still but I just want to ride, and it's raining today

Isn't exactly my dream road bike, but it's what I have for the moment. It has been a few years (decades) since I did much road biking. After chasing my 12 yr old on a 50lb Mountain Bike for 25 miles, I decided that if HE was going to be on a road bike (1981 Takara) then I needed something a little more nimble again. Used ($25) 79 Schwinn Le Tour IV (I think...need to post the specs in Vintage...might be a Le Tour), and have been flogging it on a few 25 mile runs and a 35 mile run. Getting it AND me back in shape.

If you really want to ride...you just saddle up and ride!
Your sig says, "I pedal in my sleep", not gettin' in much saddle time that way huh. Better change that to, "I pedal in the rain".

It's raining so you "can't" ride...Really, you can't ride due to rain? C'mon dude. HTFU and ride your damn bike. It's rained 28 of the last 30 days here in Portland OR and it hasn't stopped folks here from riding.
