    If I did the link right you can see it.

    I got the bike I wanted. As said in previous post: nobody 'needs' this bike.

    After a year where I lost my Mom and brother, I'm taking some time off to enjoy life. So after 13 years of being a professor I'm taking a year off.

    In case you cant see my link (I really suck at this stuff), here's what I got

    1) Bianchi Oltre Frameset
    2) Industry Nine I25 road wheelset
    3) Schwable Durano 700x25
    4) Selle San Marco Regale Team saddle
    5) Profile Design Cobra bar and Stem. Both White w/ white lizard skin wrap
    6)elite custom race cage x2
    Ultrgra triple for the 53 YO man

    off to ride

    (edited by Moderator to help a brother out! lol!)

    Congrats! Sounds like a cool bike. Which color frameset did you get? Please share a ride report and let us know how it rides.

    There is a brief writeup with pictures on BikeRader.com:

    Congrats on the new bike and the time to out it to good use.

    No harm whatsoever in going with a triple. Will make life more enjoyable on those long climbs.

    Enjoy!

    ahh, Bianchi. My first real road bike (Campione d'Italia, Columbus Thron tubing). Good for you. Too bad you didn't campy it up though.
