Here's a photo from my cockpit, trailing the wife and daughter on their tandem halfway through the "Bike Around the Buttes" century last April (northern California, up by Yuba City/Marysville).

I thought you weren't supposed to wrap those k wing bars much past the hoods. That's the first time I've seen tape that far up.

The values of the color depth are a good match. Both are kind of a pastel/creamy opaque color.I was looking through my bike pictures and realized that I don't have an over-the-handlebars shot. I have a couple of detail photos of how I mounted my blinky lights, but no "cockpit" photos.

sweaty hands made the bars to slippery so i had them wrapped further up. it doesnt hurt the bars and made it safer to ride. less bling factor though.

This is the closest thing I have, for now. I'll try to get a true dashboard pic, but this thread will probably be old and dead by the time I do.

Here's two more - the first one is from my bike getting ready to catch a "knave" of my own on La Canada Road over on the SF Bay penninsula. Unlike our own tourtured forum member, I caught mine!
The second picture is from over my bike (stationary), getting ready to start a 4 mile descent in the Sierra Nevada at about 7000'. This was over by Gold Lake in the Sierra Buttes region, between Bassets and Graegle.
