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 is one I built for my wife.

Since the picture I have moved the shifters up on the handlebars quite a bit, and rotated them down quite a bit.

Here is my 2010 RT800 SL. The frameset, seatpost, stem, bar, tires, and front wheel are original.

The major upgrades include red shifters, force derailleurs, SRAM Quarq crankset.




Since these pictures were taken I downgraded to Rival rear derailleur and shifters.
