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

Don't think I would change my pick, but it is a nice looking bike.

Not a racer here so I am dreaming of an all around. Something like the Seven Axiom SG or Lynskey R230.

But realistically my next bike would likely be a Specialized Roubaix or a low end Madone if the price is within reach.

I agree that paint job was pretty bad.

I'd like my bike, with a horizontal TT (for aesthetics only)... and I guess might as well make it full record then... and throw some edge/sapim/dt wheels on there. That'll do just fine for me.... oh, and a rocket launcher... and oil slick dispenser... and some sort of grappling hook device for improved cornering.

custom fit steel bike probably (not sure who the builder would be), good group like force. solid wheels... Something that will work well forever.

I really don't know though, I have to test more bikes to really narrow down what would be best for me.

I will probably end up with a Caad 9 or a Cervelo. I was in Colorado Cyclist about three weeks ago and looked at a Colnago CLX with full Chorus. Oh my!!
