I havnt really found anything PERFECT before, i kinda never believed in that concept but geeeeee... my new bike has got me allll excited like nothing.
OK. i confess.... it was a big decision to make in 2 days. getting this bike is like committing my life to a lifetime of cycling. So i got my white giant prince but im gonna miss my black trek knight. its kinda hard to let ur first bike go and i like things in black. =/ so well, as i try really hard here to do a big sell out to make up for the prince's price tag, i dont think i can stop talking about the specs of it. At least, i'll burst out into a rumble of bike parts to anyone with a knowledge of road bikes. Actually, i just feel really really really happy because i've never been so fast before. THIS is what a bike should feel like rolling along and i never thought that it will lead me to the road bike category.
Its like, i've heard of people building custom bikes before with all the parts made to their specs but this giant has got everything going for me. Wheels tougher than the average road wheels, narrow handle bars, short stem for short me, my dream shimano 105 gearset, ultegra level shifters for small hands!, women specific design, shimano pedals... urm, i cant really keep my hands and eyes off it. My friends probably think that im quite deprived of a guy and im trying really hard to sound normal when im actually bursting to spend hours in the garage learning about it. Well, cosmetically its not some italian or US brand, but u've gotta respect the good parts they placed into it. phe-0-weett.
okay im going home soon to sg. i got to leave my baby behind here for a month =/ but meantime, im gonna be meetin cong up for swim training. whats a roadbike and being australia good for if i didnt attempt a short course of swim,cycle,run! because thats what u do here in brisbane. u tri!
