What road bike do you have?

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

What road bike do you have?

Mac....You need to click on Post reply, and not use the quick reply section. Once you click on the 'Post Reply' button, you'll see a bunch of buttons above the message section...One of them is IMG. Click on that and enter the full URL of the picture of your bike from https:// all the way to .jpg and then click ok and submit the message.

I'm confused. Are you trying to attach an image local to your machine or are you trying to reference an external link?

Well... once I went directly to the image, the page updated with the cache. It's a huge picture. Anyways, I think the other poster is right in that the site you're linking to doesn't accept external links. I just saved a copy of the image, scaled it down and am attaching it below.

Its because I am a compulsive nut , In my world if the bike gets a scratch on it I would have a nervous break down , Im the guy at the mall who parks his car 2 miles away so I dont get a ding in my door from some soccer mom who drives a fifty thosand dollar suv who hits your car with the door , baby carrige , hand bag, shopping cart or all of the above, then blows a stop sign on a cell phone and runs you down on your bike. Please feel my Pain.

I don't have a picture of the actual bike yet, but it's on order. It will be a LeMond custom '04 Tęte de Course with full Record components. (Ignore the Dura-Ace in the picture). I decided against the stock Race X-Lite wheels in favor of the more durable Race Lites. A custom build normally takes 1 month from the date of order, but I just found out the new graphics on the '04 models will not begin until Nov. 1. I'll post pictures once I receive it.

Dang, that looks like a sweet rig. How do you know you'll like the ride? Was there one at your LBS?

What is that going to cost you?

That LeMond kinda looks like the Team Saturn bikes at the T-Mobile Intl. Save the color, I think it's the same bike.

Very Sharp bike, this should be a dream with the Campy Record group. What is the frame made of?
