What brand 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

Just curious.

I forgot to include "other" as an option. Just use Exotic instead.

I have an unbuilt Fuji TeamSL waiting on parts. But yeah, I'll go ahead and say I have a Fuji. I bought the frame used off Ebay and I'm hanging a mix of Record (levers), Chorus (rear der) and Centaur (front der & cassette) parts on it. So it's a Japanese frame with Italian parts. Wonder what I should nickname it.

Yeah, but there is no poll with it. How long is going to take me to count the different brands in that thread?
