Ugg. I don't feel so great. Hard to say how much from the Shingrix, how much from mrs datlas waking me up at 2:30 and tossing/turning the next few hours, and how much from my fake miles in the cellar. I actually started to feel really nauseated on the Zwift meetup, which was for 90 minutes, about 1 hour into the ride and I bailed at about 75 minutes.
I am sure I will be better soon, but right now not so good. I suppose a little achiness and crumminess is ok if I don't get the stupid shingles.

I like black bikes, so I'm partial to that. Of course, I'm partial to high viz on me.

Most definitely - made at a time when finished basement space was unheard of, so there wasn't much of an attempt to level the concrete floor. In the 2' * 8' area of the bench, there's about 2" of deviation, hence the leveling feet and tying in to the structure above (so it doesn't move and throw off the level).

I'd give it a 'hot'. Only niggle is the steerer/stem clamp area - the light is catching so many horizontal lines between the spacers and cut-outs in the stem that it looks a little clunky. FYI, instructions on the Cervelo stems say that it's okay to trim 4mm below the top of the stem so as to eliminate the spacer on top. 
What bottle cages? Carbon? I still need to find some but having a hard time coughing up $50+ each for the big-brands.

Story of the cages is I had a junky, Performance house brand carbon cage and found another one on eBay. Turned out the guy couldn’t find it, so he gave me the two new items for the price of the old Forte, free shipping. They are CFRP with the weave visible and look pretty good, I think.

And if there’s a bottle of hand sanitizer to be bought in this town, we sure as hell can’t find it.

you’ll like the router table, but one piece of advice, never ever use the router height adjustment from the top of the table without securing the adjuster. The flimsy snap ring gives away if you do. I set mine with a lock ring that has a set screw, like you’d have on flush cut router bits.
Edit: Of course, that is, you have a Bosch EVS router to go with the table.

Yeah, at age 63 one doesn’t trim a steerer with gay abandon. There’s helo tape on the head tube to protect from rub.
Story of the cages is I had a junky, Performance house brand carbon cage and found another one on eBay. Turned out the guy couldn’t find it, so he gave me the two new items for the price of the old Forte, free shipping. They are CFRP with the weave visible and look pretty good, I think.

I do have the Bosch router, but I haven't even opened the box yet, so I only have a general idea of what you're talking about. I'll keep it in mind when get around to opening/mounting in a couple days, through.

Oh, and one other thing about Cervelo's guidelines for trimming the steerer - I'm not sure if this is only with their recommended steerer insert or not... it's a metal jobber that needs to be epoxied in place rather than your typical expansion plug.
