Saturday Is the day... Ruefest 2.0...
 

called the shop... Bike will be ready 9am when they open for me..

its hopefully going to remain in the 50's for sat/sunday... and pending how Bold I feel ill stalk Pcad and ride Mt Doom and compare bikes.. given how awesome we are..

I honestly dont even know how this bike is going to withstand my sheer power.. but well see


really had nothing planned with this thread past making a post..


2009 Roubaix Sl2 56cm frame black with the white accents. 10 speed Chorus Carbon groupset.. and Roval Fusee E5 wheelset..

I dont race.. I just ride to enjoy myself.. and having a properly fit frame with some nice components.. im looking forward to putting in the miles this spring/summer/fall..

Pics to come saturday after decimating any other cyclist i see on the road..


Ps... Ruefest 2.0 is about to rock your world

Some who do race might make it a rue-fest for you. Congrats and enjoy the new ride!

its cool... im looking forward to getting called a Fred, and being looked at as a noob.. given im trying to match my bike/wheels/kit/helmet..

And then ill drop the hammer... and burn out 2 min later and get passed again.. but for those 2 min.. Glorious..

funny....there is a guy in my area that rides the same frame and he also burns out in about 2 minutes.

man.. i guess Ruefest isnt taking off.. I was expecting more.. but i guess Rue'ing is over with..

I cant wait till the day after I pick it up and I have buyers remorse.. thats going to be *****en

buyer's remorse? Why?

it is a great ride - you seem to like it - ride as hard as you can and enjoy it to the fullest

I eagerly await your ride report.

Just don't let pizza delivery guys on 30lb bikes drop you and you'll be fine.

:D

Man, from all I've read, you are going to love that bike. Comfort and performance. They have one on display at my LBS and I get aroused in a strange sort of way everytime I see it.

Oh im absolutely in love with it just the few months ive had it planned and ordered with the bike shop.. and The biggest reason for going with this bike is the fit, with a broken lower back every single bit of comfort I can gain is worth the money. But with anything that costs a boat load.. that week after the OMG OMG this is great... one has remorse.. Does it mean ill hate myself? nope.. ill just look at my bank account, and not care because ill be happy to have a comfortable ride that will last me many many many years ahead

^^^^ On behalf of everyone on BF, thanks for doing your part to stimulate the economy!

Your gonna ride with a broken back?

Riding with a broken back is a right of passage..

I rode all last spring/summer and into the fall. I lost 60 pounds, which will help with the pain..

its just pain, except its there every waking moment of every day.. it makes you go harder and faster.. it lets you push yourself because you have sheer determination to overcome the pain.

=) So yes.. I have and will continue to ride with my broken back.

Because giving up 20-30% mobility for a surgery they say cant give any guarantee of any pain reduction is just silly..

Ill deal with the pain and move forward.

Oh and ask Pcad hes like old or something (kidding) but does have a busted back simliar to mine and he somehow manages more miles then most of the BF fanclub combined

This thread actually makes me chuckle. I like the title. Make sure you post pics once you get the bike home:thumb:
