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

I have been shopping for a used road bike for a while now and as of yesterday I have a road bike. I bought a Cannondale 2006 Six13 Team 2, from the nicest people you will ever meet. Bike only has 400 miles on it and is in great shape. I road it yesterday and today for a combined 40 miles and I am loving it, cant wait to do longer rides.

For some reason, I think Cannondale just makes the sexiest bikes. I love the metallic coloring for some reason. Just seems sleek. Great purchase.

Usually the "family" means your have girlish tone to your voice and weak forearm muscles causing a dip in the wrist.

Great bike. Welcome to the C-Dale family. We are getting more and more converts who, after getting over the completely useless styling machinations of the like of Specialized and Orbea/Pinny, realize that function should always trump form.
