Death of an old friend

Nice Felt Billy. She looks like a wind slicing weapon of competition destruction. Have you taken her out yet? Is she carbon?
Have fun getting to know your new ride. I'm sure you'll ride MANY miles together.

Yep, all carbon. I have done 2 rides on it and it is fast! A 30 mile route I train on a lot went by 5 minutes faster!

Excellent Billy. Nothing like shaving minutes off of your total time. When you get the racing wheels you and the Felt will be unstoppable!

Until a couple of years ago I was a devout mountain biker, but decided to get a road bike so I could train my legs for endurance (plus it is easier to just jump on the road instead of packing for an OFFroad trip). I never thought much of road biking until I threw a leg over one. HOLY COW those things are efficient and FAST. I ended up buying a full carbon Kestrel Talon (with aero tubes, but not a full tri bike) and I LOVE that bike. I'm always amazed at how fast and far I go without even thinking about it. I don't put nearly as many miles on it as I would like, but the miles that I do put on it are a lot of fun.
