I need some celeste deep v's on some white phil woods with white spokes, bullhorns, and some black walled armadillo tires, maybe marathons, with air lock tubes. Then I could stop wanting for a little while. Maybe.

My bike world would be complete if my bike weighed less - I'd love to take it down about 180 grams. A lighter seat post might could be in my future. But then what would I have to look forward to?

Financial security enough to allow me to ride whenever I want instead of having to go to work.
More attention paid/attentive drivers to share the road with (I don't mind riding with traffic, I do mind when they pay no mind
)
A nice shiny new road bike would be kickass, too.

i just want more bikes. i love riding FG/SS, but i want one of everything. maybe two.
classic lugged italian roadbike, modern track, english 3-speed, modern TT, a nice beater ect. it just all so expensive!
the more money i earn from working, the less time i can spend riding. i can imagine by my old age having nice stable, but alas its going to take alot of time and money to get there. thats the fun i g uess, it would be boring to have everything.

my world will be complete this september when BTI gets this frame in stock from charge bikes.
actually, it'll be en route to completion; i'll spend the winter building it, in which case my (biker) world will be complete in march.
also-- this is a biker. i think you mean cyclist.

you are going to love phila.
between septa and new jersey transit who are apparently in some secret competition to endanger as many riders as possible by racing cyclists on sight (and then immediately blaming the cyclist when he/she narrowly escapes with his/her life), you begin to feel like a dragon slayer on wheels.
