I just got a road bike today.. well, I have a Jamis Aurora, but I consider it a 'touring' bike, even though technically it's still a road bike. I wanted something lighter and quicker feeling than the Aurora, and recently got a bonus check from work.. so....
I haven't had a chance to take good pics of my new bike, but here's a little something. It's a 2010 Bianchi Via Nirone 7, double chainring tiagra version. I got a deal on it since the 2011's are coming out soon. I don't think it was a 'great' deal, but after my test ride, I felt like I had to have it, and it was less than the new ones will be.

My beaters, AKA the clash of modern and vintage!
(yeah I know I need to trade my saddle for a white/red one ASAP)
The bianchi is around 20-21lbs now, the "schwinn" is a little heavier at around 22. Both have different columbus tubing sets.

2010 Madone 4.7
Full Rival, Look Keo 2 Max pedals and Fizik Arione saddle, which is about to be replaced with a Toupe Expert if it ever comes in.

I have to say I'm not a huge fan of the white/red scheme for 2010 but your bike looks great with the red Look pedals and Reynolds wheels. How do you like the new wheels so far?
