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

FWIW, Simple Green causes corrosion on aircraft aluminum. Make sure to flush all the nooks and crannies.

It's a Selle SMP TRK. Very comfortable. Just bought the ladies version for my wife's bike as well.

Humble or otherwise, looks like a nice bike. I like the way they added the TREK decals. Very cool.

Another humble Trek 1.5. I have a set of Vuelta Corsa Lites waiting at home. It's served me well so far.

Some expensive red at that. I have yet to see eTap, is it comparable to Double Tap or different entirely?

Shifting is totally different.

Left shifter moves the RD left, right shifter moves it right. Tap both and the FD shifts.
