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

Nothing special, but I like it and ride the hell out of it - a 2005 Giant OCR Limited with Mike Garcia wheels and an Ultegra crank:

Its basically a 2006 stock with a few bits changed.
Fizik Arione carbon braided saddle
Deda RS Carbon seat post
Dead Zero 100 stem
Time RXS Carbon Ti pedals
Elite Carbon Patao bottle cages
Michelin Pro2 race Spec.Ed tyres.

At the time it was the best value for money down here.

Personally, I prefer this color scheme:



Same bike, just not the T Mobile colors. According to our local Giant rep, all of the ones in my scolor sscheme are gone, and the small run of the T Mobiles they did to coincide with the TOur of California are sold. However, there are supposed to be a limited release of the T Mobile bike around the TDF.

They are Xero xsr3s. The fact they look so nice is all that has saved me from buying pink rims...so far.

Sweet bikes. Looks like i'll have to take some new pictures of mine since both of them have changed quite a bit since their last "official" pictures.
