After thinking about what I wanted to write, I just didn't sit down and do it, there has been a lot going on I finally got my new bike built it's a '09 Ridley Boreas, I got 2010 SRAM Force components, American Classic Victory wheels, FSA bar and stem a Thomson seat post and Speedplay pedals.
I had Pedal Pushers Cyclery in Golden CO build the bike and also fit me to it, You cannot go wrong with them to do anything bike related for you.
The Ridley is a dream to ride weighing in at 18.30lbs I still need to get use to the Speedplay pedals heck I only have 40 or miles on it and after using SPD's on the old Trek 4300 which I really didn't like most of the time I could not get in them which drove me nuts
I built "Arabella" with SRAM components, FSA stem and bar the saddle in this picture is a loner from PPC I have since bought a Fizik Aliante in white to replace that one. The overall ride has been great not that I would know any different.
I have rode a few miles on "Arabella" I not gotten to ride the century (100miles) yet my personal best is 72.5 miles.
I know it has been a long time since I have written anything on here, I think that watching or reading @TWBrit and @Gabsatrucker, I think that blogging could be a good venting place.
I should also proof read as well, I had wrote some of this a while back with the intentions of posting it at a later date, I'm not going to go back and change it now. lol
EXCELLENT work here.
I'm a huge bike fan (I ride a Trek 4300)

Thanks D, I gave my old 4300 to a friend, surprisingly he has been riding it, after he gave me crap for all the time I put on my bikes.
