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

In my Hands...

I was browsing in my LBS, watching the owner opening boxes. He pulls out a frame and hands it to me - the new Cervelo R5ca. Matte black and way light. It was amazingly light... I was also surprised at how small the seat stays are in comparison to my Scott CR1.

The LBS owner then begins to tell me the price $10k for the frame alone! He is building it up with Campy Super Record and ENVE Wheels. The whole black on black looked really good.

I had a little envy for a few minutes...
