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

I can't believe your leaning that Porsche on the Look KG 386i, are you crazy?

I received my Look KG 386i from CC last month and it's a great bike!

I'll go one better, I'll pick it up

What's the point of shipping a Porsche? Drive the thing back!

P.S. I'll let you draft behind me... for a little while

I thought you were going to tell us that you bought the Porsche for your wife so she'd let you get the Look.

Nice bike.

Is that a triple chainring on there? Or do my eyes decieve me because that much eye candy in one picture can really mess with someones head.
And did I ever tell you we are long lost brothers and my birthday is coming
Nice ride(s), enjoy it

At one time I had 2 Porsches (911SC variety) and all I can say is - leave it as a bike stand. . . those things are money pits! Fun to drive, but you never stop paying for it; they keep costing you and costing you, and cost... well, you get the idea.

Oh, and sweet bike! I wanna get on your family's gift list.
