Picked this up today, my dream bike. I haven't had time to take it out for a spin yet but hoping to tomorrow. A Cervelo frame with manual Dura Ace. I chose manual over Di2 because I found the levers on Di2 too close together to change gear for my long fingers, and also the R5 frame doesn't come with internal routing for the cables. The S5 frame does but I had my heart set on the R5. Wheels are Mavic Carbon Cosmic SR's, and the crank is a Rotor 3D with Q rings (53/39). 3T Pro Carbon seat post, bars and stem finish off the bike, and the saddle is a Fizik Arione CX. Pedals are Ultegra SPD-SL. Looking forward to spending many hours perched on top of this whizzing around the surrounding countryside.

So that's what you were getting all excited about? I don't blame you ... :biggrin:

Looking at your profile comment I take it "rain has stopped play" today then?

Yes it has :angry:. As I got in from work, it was starting to rain, then it stopped for a bit. There was a lot of dark clouds overhead but a glimmer of light in the distance so I thought I'd leave it half an hour and hopefully it would stay dry, but it didn't. Now it is dry & sunny out there but I have things to do and won't have time to get out today. Oh well, maybe tomorrow ^_^
