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

Why would anyone change their seat height for race day? That is a disaster waiting to happen.

It would just be for show, though. I haven't received my new road shoes yet. Gotta be authentic.

If I see another Cervelo I'm going to throw up.

Now this is hot, even without tires that I need to pick up tomorrow:

Looks like it's focused on the skewer quick release. Would love to see a photo with less artistic impression of that Parlee.

lol - you're being generous with artistic. It looks like it might be a hot bike, but I have no idea why you posted that shot.

Parlees are generally VERY hot. That picture is utter garbage though and shows of none off the aforementioned hotness. Try again, please.

Piss off, lol.

For the pic, put it on the big ring, and take off the saddlebag. And you'll have to upgrade your 2 dollar cage to survive this thread.
