In 2005 I bought a Trek 1000, rode it, and eventually sold it. After going through two other, different owners the frame, fork, and stem are back in my hands again. Given that the Trek 1000 is a better frame than the Mercier Galaxy I've been riding, I moved all my stuff over to it and this is the result. Here's the specs: 2005 Trek 1000 SL frame, Bontrager carbon fiber fork, Truvativ triple crankset, LOOK KEO pedals, Bontrager carbon fiber seat post, Specialized Riva saddle, Bontrager Select stem, Bontrager Select bars, Shimano Sora shifters/brake levers, Shimano Tiagra front and rear derailleurs, Shimano 600 brake calipers, and Alex R500 rimmed/Formula hubbed wheels with Bontrager tires. It's certainly not a top dollar bike, and there are many like it, but this one is mine.

Cutting the steerer toob shortly and trying to get my hands on a cheap Thomson stem. This is definitely the fastest bike in my stable so far, I'm liking it.

Purchased my first road bike today. I don't have my own pictures of it yet, but the one in the link is identical. Found it on a casual look through my local CL here in Savannah. I wasn't looking for one but I kept seeing it over the last couple of weeks. The advertised price of $350 stated "firm". But I decided to shoot him a text anyway. He immediately called back and said he would take $300. I couldn't say no and now it's in my dining room. He wrote in the ad that it was like new but I took that with a grain of salt. But I was shocked when I saw it. It is actually new. Right out of a 7 year time warp. And all original. It's like it had never been ridden. I have about a mile test ride on it and I'll be getting out on it tomorrow. Did I do good?

Agreed.
I am running flipped up and slammed on my ss cross bike and 29er.
Waiting for the right zero rise stem to come along to slam the road bike because +6 slammed puts the bars a little too high.
Now I just need some good whisky to be fast like Floyd.
