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

When I saw the Pinarello in the thread title, I hesitated, and almost didn't open the thread (normally they make me queasy with the curvy crap) but I'm glad I went out on a limb.

Nice bike.

I would love a c-record group group on this bike, but it's a bit out of the price range :-) The 600 will have to do for now. This is an impulse buy I'm sure I'll enjoy for some time to come! It's even prettier in person...

Oh my bad, I thought the "What road bike do you have now" thread was for pictures of your bike.
