How about some good news for a change.
Maybe it is just me but there seems to be a lot of threads with bad news recently... I am tired of bad news.

That is all.

I was driving about 15 minutes ago and there was a family on bikes in front of me taking up most of the road. I drove behind them slowly until they turned off on to a side street. It was great.

My brother just got a caad9-5.
I suppose that's bad news since it's a nicer bike then mine...
But that's 2 converts to road biking now.

My buddy put down a deposit on a CAAD 9-5 today. When he gets that, I'll be the only one in the group with a crappy bike. That's mostly good news.

I have a new saddle, bars and bar tape - all white - arriving Tuesday. (Well, the bars are black I guess.) Fit and comfort upgrade.
I am riding better than ever.
All of this is good news, but only I care about any of it. Don't know if that helps.

This is nice.
I exceeded my weight loss goal of 30 pounds, and seem to have settled at 40 pounds down.
My dislocated elbow is finally fully re-located and I'm riding stronger than ever and looking forward to a long summer on the bike...

Good news from me... I hope to get out for a ride for the first time in about 2 months tomorrow. suffice to say that life has been getting in the way... might explain the starting of this thread.

I got new Campy Centaur shifters yesterday, with the new ergonomics. I somehow survived installing (barely) the cryptic, nearly impossible to install shifter cables. I rode 2.5 hours today in 95 degree weather, and the shifters are awesome. I am happy.
