I can't wait to get that on the road.
Oh, sorry to hear that. I've had more than my fair share of bike mishaps too. I had a beautiful 2008 Bianchi Pista...for about 3 weeks until someone broke my cable and a U-lock to steal it.

I went for a week or so without a bike until I got time to fix up one of my older bikes. I drove at least 40 miles around town that week, and normally I never do city driving. I guess that shows how much I normally bike.
