Thanks. The pics are a few months old. It's in pretty good shape considering its age. It does have one unfortunate ding on the top tube though. It will get some classy fenders and new tires one of these days.

Just flip it already. And get that saddle pointing down so you can get a more aero position.

Seriously though, what a great thread. I wish I had a beautiful bike to contribute like all the others.
