Cool shot Sheldon! Background looks beautiful... what area was this?

Incurable · 3 October 2007, 04:05 PM

Doesn't that kinda hurt?

That's great Sheldon, let me guess

"Specialized"?
Nokons are cool, but Powercordz are lighter

I like the personalised frame decal, kind of like a Pro bike

Well you should already know what I think about the GMT
Shhhmoookin!!!

Great pic!

sheldonsmith · 3 October 2007, 10:05 PM

Yes, its a Specialized E5 (4 years old), and on the Central California coast. The picture is looking west; the Pacific Ocean is on the other side of the hills shown in the background.

Sheldon,
Great watch, nice view, and that seat post is SICK.

Ride a LeMond myself.

Cannondale anyone??

Just realised that the Sub Date would look cool against the Cannondale Bad Boy.... too bad it's in storage in Australia...

sheldonsmith · 4 October 2007, 05:35 AM

I used to ride with Lemond (we shared the same trainer back "in the day.."), does that count?. I was in the last amateur race he did before going to Renault...

Looking good, Sheldon. Seeing you after a long time. Trust all is well at home and with you, pal!!

Neilduc · 4 October 2007, 04:28 PM

I was riding too, but I didnt ride for a long time now. Kept my bike in garage for almost 4yrs now. I should start riding again, got to stay fit

How about an SD??

Cannondale Bad Boy Ultra Disc. Great bike second Cannondale, versatile as the wheels can swap out for mountain bike wheels.

No longer able to ride a racer due to injuries, as all middle aged sports people are probably aware, the mind is there but body is falling apart

Long live anti inflammatories!!

Nice bike! I have not seen that tail section before - it really gives it family resemblance with their MotoGP machines.

Yes, it does resemble with the MotoGP bike. That is the original Ducati Performance MotoGP tailpiece.

When those pics were taken the bike was less than 2 weeks old. The final fitting took place later when the steerer tube was indeed cut down. My fitter wanted to make sure I was comfortable on the new frame/fork layout before cutting it!

Thanks Chris…she is a dream to ride. Even friends of mine who ride decent Truks love it when they have a go….you can tell where the money went that’s for damn sure.

Funny you mention carbon though, my next rig will be a steelie – made from that new Reynolds stuff – 953? Or something. That’s about a year away (at least!) though.

What MTB do you ride?

Destroy · 7 October 2007, 06:54 PM

w/ training wheels.........

Alcan · 8 October 2007, 12:50 AM

Great bike shots. I guess my bike's getting a bit outdated now.

Lol-x · 18 October 2007, 09:56 AM

Nice Look Neilduc, I think it would look cool with Destroy's Boras

I'll have to take a photo of my ride a C'dale CAAD8
