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

Here's my 2010 Giant TCR Avanced 3. I switched out the 105 5600 gruppo for full Ultegra. Also, switched my Arione seat for an Arione VS. I love this bike!!

I would say pretty much the same minus the numbness. It seems to work as designed. I would like to try out the Antares VS though.
