Got it for the same price as you. It's an awesome ride! Only done 300k on it thus far, but already itching to do some upgrades on it! :/ Though most likely I won't be able to tell the difference.

I wasn't there that day either. Must of been another Specialized rider. http://cdn.revscene.ca/forums/images/smilies/troll.png

I've got a Kona Hahanna in a size 52 (or was it 54) if you're interested.

$100 takes it. Tuned up and ready to go. New seat too!

(Pretty much looks like this without bar handle extensions.)

My CRC order came in yesterday, just over a week after ordering. Everything went fine and smooth. I got hit with $23 in HST so far plus 8.50 brokerage with Canada Post, not surprised but I seem to be in the minority with CRC orders and having to pay tax. Had I shipped to Pt. Roberts I probably would have been able to bring the stuff back tax free

My wheels were out of stock when I placed the order which I knew already but the ETA got pushed back another week to early July, so I may cancel those and look around locally. They were supposed to ship everything altogether so I only get dinged with brokerage once but at least this way I can start putting everything together I suppose.

What kinda upgrades??

DT Swiss 3.0 wheels? :D

Looking to keep track of my rides, so just wondering whats a good odometer brand and model? and what do you guys use for helmets? Is there big difference between a mountain bike and road helmet? thx

When you get down to the nitty gritty, yes. But for all intents and purposes, no.

I bought a mountain bike helmet on sale and ripped off the visor and suddenly, it's a road bike helmet. :fuckthatshit:

Was thinking of Mavic Ksyrium Elite wheels and Continental 4000s tires. About 800 grams in weight savings!!! But for the additional cost I could of bought the Tarmac SL2 Comp. I would of but I wasn't digging the red tires. Looked better in pics.

I'm using the Sigma BC 1609. It's 30 bux on Amazon.

Decided to challenge myself today.

Started at Iona Beach and rode all the way to Steveston Village and back. Total time, including a water + snack break was 1 hour and 30 minutes on my Scott hybrid.

I even managed to snap a pic when I got back! :D

I'm rocking a Gary Fisher Triton single speed in the baby blue/white combo. Love the thing to death. First road bike. Bought it back in March as a door crasher at a tent sale. $300.

^
Pix! :D

Ugh caught a mean cold from the rtcc, but the experience was amazing

Boooo you changed your name!

what route did you take to get down to steveston? Are there any backroads which are quiet or did you have to go down the main roads?

Well, for starters, I went from Iona Beach towards Miller Road. From Miller, took a right down No. 2 Road. After the bridge, I cut through to a small path towards Lynas Lane. From there, south on Lynas Lane to Granville. Right on Granville which turns into Railway then all the way down to Moncton Ave.

The route I took has dedicated bike lanes. I once tried taking back roads but they are bad to ride on or have too many stops. The main streets with bike lanes are fine in my experience.

Ok guys I'm looking to get into biking. I'm looking at getting a hybrid what do you think of the Motobecane Cafe Latte as my first bike.
