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

Here's mine. I built this bike up from parts I selected, not some store bought bike. I have a custom LeMond Zurich if you'd like to see pics of it.



Okay, here's the 2000 LeMond Zurich...now this truly is custom! You'll never see another like it.

Old but still my every day rides. You didn't see these in to many LBS in the early 90's when they came out. Between the 3 I have just a tad under 72,000 miles.

It's got a 6600 Ultegra front derailleur now along with a 90mm stem instead of 120mm. I also dropped the stem about and inch.

The frame is one of those cheap carbon frames off Ebay.
