New Bike Build and possibly two rides today...NICE!

Yesterday was so windy I went to spin class at the gym. Great workout, and a different one, very good for the body.  Also lifted on circuit and a bit of abs.  In class, my Cynergy mait, Tom, said he wanted to go for a ride today after a special Breast Cancer awareness Class at HealthTrax at 9:30, so I am going to take him on my two shops ride.  Then at 3pm I will be going out to my brothers to ride the hills of Marlborough, again.  Although I do not like hills, not even a little, I really enjoy riding with Nick, so there is a trade-off.  We have a lot to talk about today, new frames, what saddle, handlebars, brakes...and so on.  Should be fun, if not tiring.

CERVELO R3 2010 Frameset - NICE!
 Just a peak at my frame.

With mostly Dura Ace parts this should make me real fast!...:)  "The bike does not make the rider", too bad.
Bought a pair of stainless steel SpeedPlay Zero Pedals, a 3T handlebar shallow reach, and will buy the 3T stem to go with it, once I know the proper length to order.  Also, have to purchase a bottom bracket, and brakes.  Right now I am looking at the 6750 Ultegra Crank, and 6600g brakes, but could be swayed toward dura ace in both spots given the RIGHT Price.  Will most likely switch them out over time.  Have an offer on a pair of 6600 brakes and 6750 crank so we will see what we will see.  Having a great time shopping and researching though.
