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
Hey good luck with the Steelers in the playoffs. I hope the Jetsies get to go and play them. Better Pittsburgh than New England. I don't know who the eff is going to beat those boys this year.
Without the Easton wheels that bike (outfitted as in the photo) is about $4,500.
The team replica bike is the Super Six, not the High Mod Super Six, but I think you know that.
Yeah, I was aware. I think it's weird that they chose to use the Team colors for their highest-end and also their lowest-end SuperSix.
Conte's said mixing components to keep the price in my range would also be possible. I'm going to see what it will cost me to build up the SuperSix 5 Team Replica with Rival brakes and FD, Force shifters and cranks, and a red RD. If they can do that for around $3k out the door then my decision is made.
Oh man. 20 years as an Eagles and Flyers fan - I am used to unhappy endings, so this was about par for course. Didnt really expect them to beat the Pack with that porous D. Buddy Ryan, Bud Carson and JJ are turning in their graves.

Isn't that the first time they've lost a home playoff game since Andy's been head coach?

No, I think they lost a couple of Conference finals as well, IIRC. They actually did better than I expected this year, given that they lost their starting CB, FS, MLB and RDE to season-ending injuries and had a patchwork OL to boot. Andy gets no respect in Philly.

Other than Bobby Clarke and Kate Smith, nobody gets any respect in Philly.
