What did you think of the Madone now that you are a ti-snob?

You do know the two road bikes he bikes are steel (including the seven), right?
Thursday.
Last day in Cali. I got up at the butt crack of dawn to get in a quick loop of the TT course. Took a few minutes to enjoy the sunrise...
Got back, showered, had breakfast, and then we walked around town. I haven't really seen much of the town other than riding through to go somewhere. It's a pretty cool little place. It's made to look like an old Danish town. Sorta feels a little like walking through Disney World or something like that.
Very bike friendly town. A couple hotels rent these cool crazy Dutch bikes to cruise around town...
If you don't already know, those are just painted Gary Fisher Simple Cities. They even have a bike lane at the bank...
That was at a RaboBank BTW. I didn't know they actually had banks. Of course I had to eat a Danish as well. When in Rome right?
Gave our goodbyes and thanks to the fine folks at Trek for showing us a good time and just like that, time to go home. Boooooo!!
Santa Ynez Valley from the sky. I will miss this place for sure, but I also miss the lady and little guys back home. Time to start planning for my next adventure
Got home at like 2am. So tired. Ended up hanging out the wife until even later. Almost didn't get up for work this morning. So tired today.

Not to nitpick but those are from the Specialized Globe line of bikes...just not sure of the model. The simple city didn't have the twin top tube. Those also have dead give away's like the specialized tires, saddle, and the headtube badge that's only found on Globe bikes.
