Oh man, I'm going to tear up Boulder this year. Check out what the Chainwheel folks, specifically Sarah, put together for me! Freaking ridiculous...

Very nice. And here I am, heading out to a bike shop or two tomorrow with money in-hand to get my first semi-serious bike. The above picture is like being a virgin and flipping through Hustler

Finally have the bike you deserve? Ride her like you stole her my friend.

If tuners rode bikes, they'd look like that.

Seriously, though -- you did tris on a $500 Schwinn?!

Exactly - it makes his efforts that much more impressive that it's on a (relatively) inexpensive bike!

Yeah, I had clip on aero bars and just last year upgraded to Mavic Aksium's. The best part of my races was passing someone on a bike like I have now. Oftentimes, I could hear them getting upset when they'd see the clunky set up I was on. Sooooo much better....

And the Tigger bar wraps are BA. I'll have no trouble finding my bike in transition!
