Greetings Readers!

What crazy weather were having! I was literally getting snowed on during my ride into work this morning. It’s dang near April? WTH? I’ve got me some tired legs after running yesterday, I’ve surely used some muscles long dormant in my body. Sore I am.

Coach says take tomorrow off and rest, I’ve two days of hard riding this weekend. Ok Coach, whatever you say.

I love cross, but I sure can (being a roadie) appreciate a stellar road bike. So, I found this Spectrum over on the Serotta Forum and feel the need to share. I found this bike to be really well done, aesthetically speaking especially. It’s Clean, subtle, classy, elegant, balanced, and timeless. I like the Campy hubs laced to the box section rims, I don’t think fancy deep V wheels would have fit this bike. Beautiful build. Gorgeous bike. I suspect it doesn’t ride like a pig either.

You can view a group of photos HERE. But for a quick pic, here you go…..

For you bike geeks out there like me, you’ll have to register over at the Serotta Forum to see the pics in the “Custom Bikes” Forum. It only takes a few minutes and you’ll see some incredible builds. Spectrums, Serotta’s (of course) Indy Fabs, Dave Kirk’s, Richard Sachs, Vanilla’s, and a host of others. You won’t find anything that you’ll see on a showroom floor in a bike shop. All Custom, all high $$, Good Stuff.

A personal congratulations to K-Man for being appointed Director of OBRA, and a Thank You to Candi Murray for 22 years of service!
