Ordered my new bike!
Ordered my first modern road bike today. My old bike is my profile pic, Downtube shifters, steel fork. New bike is GT GTR4 from Nashbar.

Sweet, enjoy. I have a GTR 1 2010 with Ultegra and carbon fork blades. It's also my first road bike. The welds on the frame are nice and smooth.

Well, it took me about a month to get the time to start riding (two full time jobs, one of which is a family business) But as winter dawns, so does my time to ride. Two ten mile rides done. I have a goal of 1200 miles for the year, modest to some, many miles to me. I can't say how much I love this bike. Smooth and comfortable, it was an all out steal at a little over $400. I love nashbar, and am now a customer for life.
