Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Happy graduation to me!!

54... and I may just end up selling the Vigors, considering they only have 2k on them and they already need all new bearings. i am disappointed to say the least. we'll see how the summer goes... maybe some zip 343's!!

****. I shouldn't have dropped out of school!

Congratulations and a beautiful ride!. I want one so bad. Well I guess I'll be graduating in 2-3 years, so we'll see.

Really? that sucks man. My vigors are holding up nicely with a little more than 2,500 miles on them. Although, if I was in your situation, it would be enough to convince me to get some zipps too

Congratulations!!!

That is a sweet looking bike...

It will look even better as soon as you peel the advertisements off of it.

Ah, educational debt. I got off easy - undergrad and law school for around $55,000. I worked the last two years of law school, which helped mightily.

Anyway, that's a sweet bike. Enjoy!

I still have a year 'till I grajitate. I still don't know if I want to work on cars for the rest of my life. I only know one thing besides that I can do, and do well and with ease, and that's what I'm here posting about.
