So I am thinking about having my frame painted. I just emailed this to hottubes.com for a quote. I really want to do this.

Had the work Christmas lunch today. It was interupted by a 5.8, 5.3 and a 6. I didn't spill my wine and we had just finished the meal with the staff told us to leave after the 6. f'n shakes. My family and house are fine. Thankfully I live on the other side of town to today's shakes.

thanks. do you want some shakes. free. Heck I'll even pay for you to take them. A year and three months of shakes is miles more than enough.

Boy New Zealand has really been getting hammered with quakes lately. Glad everything is alright.

We get lots of earthquakes every year. most are either too small to bother people or in remote places with no people. every 20 - 50 years we get a big one that happens near a populated centre. Although the last one that flattened a city was the Napier quake of 1931.

Sounds like the current honeymoon capital of the world. "Did the earth move for you too?" Here's to surviving 8K more, gnome.

I think you should conduct further research into which color pigments yield the lightest paint. I also think you should inject some colors other than black while still setting it up to look good with the clear coated carbon fork. Unless your Cervelo is unidirectional or random carbon finished you could do a logo reveal in clear coat with a less overdone frame design.

Cool your jets S.A., within 8 months all your bike crap will be obsolete after the intro of new Red and D.A. componentry.

I offer argument A in my case for color. You kids get permission from your parents if you are not of a consenting age and this is also a full NSFW disclaimer. This is apparently making the rounds in the European bike blogs at the moment which is where I found it. Found it on the same page as a review for this stunning example of color and custom Lightweight wheels.
