goofy was probably a bad choice of words, should have said more conveniently located. It wasn't my intention to call your bike goofy.

It looks like you are in Florida. Are you trying to simulate climbing by having the bars above the saddle and the front of the saddle tilted up? :P

i switch between road/spd, but I prefer the latter since I like walking around too.

I'll hot this bike. even with the spd pedals.

But as a penalty...i will always assume that you wear these spd bike sandals with your bike even if you produce evidence to the contrary.

you fixed the ugly crankset too! *ducks for cover*


steve, if you are stuck on spd, I have some proper shimano spd road pedals I could trade. They are single sided ultegras and in pretty nice shape.

lol i tried-can't stand how it looks too. I'm actually looking to replace my keos with speedplays, but truth is I find myself walking around to explore too much on rides. maybe I chose the wrong hobby!
