New bike day is obviously best day, right?
Paint is in spectacular condition, and the lugs are also in great shape. The listing failed to mention it had a Dura Ace cassette and Campy skewers.
At $575 shipped, for one of my dream frames, and a mix of Shimano 600, Dura Ace, and Campagnolo, I think I did pretty well. Thing handles like it's on rails, too. Weighed in at 22.5 lbs.
At home I have NOS campy record shifters, a record rear derailleur, NOS dura ace levers, an original Flite TI, and some record pedals. I think the only thing I will need to buy is a new seatpost. I think the Thompson I have would feel out of place. And that is my list of possible upgrades, lol.

I am curious about the large chain ring(s) and small cassette.

And yeah, the gear ratio is insane. The biggest it can do is 53x12, which puts out something like 116 gear inches. I kinda assumed it was used by a racer for a season or two, which would make sense, because this bike was marketed as a slightly better Allez, and the components have barely any wear at all.
A new cassette may be in order, though. Dunno if I could take any serious hill on this thing..

We normally just get the boboli pizza crust and pizza sauce and make our own pizzas at home rather than buy the crappy frozen stuff, and then we stumbled across this.
Ramen Crust Pizza -- Thrillist Recipes
We used shredded moz cheese instead of the provolone and mixed up the toppings. The noodles harden in the oven and it gives it a fairly solid base, however, you still might need a fork if you don't want messy hands.
I've also made quinoa pizza that I derived from this recipe:
Gluten-Free Quinoa Pizza Bites | POPSUGAR Fitness
Basically, I just make quinoa the normal way, then in a large bowl I mix in whatever pizza toppings I want (minus the sauce, but add egg so it sticks together better) and then spread it in a large cake pan and bake for 15-20 minutes at 350. After baking I just cut it into squares and spread some warm pizza sauce on top.

I typically see them (often in pairs) riding a paved trail and I kinda giggle to myself as I blow by them on 23mm slicks.
Don't get me wrong, I would LOVE to have a SS Pugs or Moonlander but I rarely see them ridden on the terrain they're intended for.

if he actually rode this winter he was probably in graceland with all the snow we had but it looked mighty clean, so he probably brought it out after optimal riding conditions
