No Bike for You !
It's spring, which seems to seems herald the crushing of my hopes to get a new bike. I was hoping to get my Cervelo Soloist this year, I really was. I thought I had it all worked out. I was gonna have the guys at International Cycles in Newton put one together for me. I was going with Ultegra parts instead of the standard Dura Ace to save a few scheckels. But, I got the call yesterday; turns out that it's even MORE expensive to put the bike together than just go with the factory set up. Either way, It puts the bike out of my somewhat limited financial reach....SIGH.

So, plan B. I'm going to replace the Tiagra drive train on my Cannondale with 105 parts, get new shoes and a new saddle and hope for the best. I really do like my C'dale. But, when I bought it four years ago, it wasn't properly fitted to me and as a result, it one size too big. This has really started reeking havoc with my lower back. Hopefully, one more season won't do me in......
